The wine exudes a highly floral aroma, with violet and rose leading the way, seamlessly entwined with the lush scents of plum and black cherry, all dusted with an abundance of spice. On the palate, it is rounded and generous, brimming with ample, giving fruit. The texture is chewy yet avoids being drying. A procession of darker fruit flavors carries through to a finish accentuated by the intriguing character of burnt sage and a stoney minerality. Drink 2026 -2045

The 2020 Barolo is redolent of sweet pipe tobacco, cedar, mint, dried cherry and incense. The blend of sites (50% La Morra and 50% Serralunga/Monforte) works so well here. Medium in body and gracious, with lovely understated presence, the straight Barolo is a fine introduction to this range.

Medium red/ruby in color, the 2020 Barolo has a polished and pure nose with aromas of ripe raspberries, fresh leather, anise, and rose petals. Approachable and medium-bodied, it's fresh and elegant, with clean acidity, fine tannins, and a tapered finish. It's appealing now and will do well over the next 4-6 years.
