Barolo
Known as the king of wines, it is potent, complex and long-lived wine made from the Nebbiolo grape. The appellation is spread over 2,134 ha in total and consists of several villages and communes. divided into a multitude of individual vineyard sites and crus similar to Burgundy, with many producers owning small plots of the individual crus.
The main winemaking approach is a long maceration of Nebbiolo grapes - between 30 to 60 days -followed by a long maturation period in large old casks for a minimum of 38 months. And many producers often choose to age their wines even longer than this because of the intense fruit and powerful tannins of their grapes.
The combination of microclimate, altitude, soil, exposition and each winemaker’s individual touch is what makes every Barolo different. And in the main communes such as Serralunga, Castiglione Falletto, and La Morra, their Barolos are renowned for certain characteristics unique to each of them, due to their differing soils and exposition.

The 2021 Barolo Cerequio is plump and juicy in its first impression, but also rather soft relative to past vintages. It will be interesting to see if the 2021 signals something of a stylistic change here. Floral overtones and silky tannins give this pliant Barolo plenty of charm. The long, sustained finish is quite attractive.Inc. TAX€412.67 -

The 2021 Barolo Monvigliero is a very pretty, polished wine. Dried herbs, incense, leather and sweet pipe tobacco meld into a core of dark-toned fruit. The aromatics are beguiling, but otherwise the 2021 feels rather reticent. It may very well develop into something more than what is present today.Inc. TAX€412.54 -

The 2021 Barolo La Serra is one of the more overt, powerful wines in the range. Dark red cherry, rose petal, sweet spice and licorice get an extra kick from the potent tannins that are such a signature of this site. Darker balsamic inflections begin to open with a bit of time in the glass. This is very nicely done.Inc. TAX€315.66 -
