Barolo is an Italian wine, one of many to claim the title "Wine of kings, and king of wines". This Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita (DOCG) wine is produced in the Cuneo province, south-west of Alba, within the region of Piemonte.
While most HSPC members are no strangers to the taste of fine wine, Vasili, the Baron of Belarus, was handed a harsh lesson in the value of this vino supremo when he drunkenly made a bet on a boulle measurement for FIVE bottles of the great grape during a late night game last year.
Thanks for the Barolo Vas, only three more bottles to go!
