justerini & brooks tasting note

A savoury mineral nose and equally earthy on the palate. This is chock full of stone, flint, mineral and dark, but very vibrant, ripe fruit. This has an explosive energy and intensity, the tannins are fortifying but there are no hard edges; this is so complete. A brilliant La Serra, one of the picks of the cellar. This is Voerzio’s highest Barolo vineyard, at 430 metres above sea level. It is not made every year, often because the vineyard succumbs to hail, but when it is made it is usually pretty special. On average 300 cases a year are made.
