justerini & brooks tasting note

A vibrant, robust Barolo that offers a fine mix of red and dark berry fruit, cherries, cool earth, stone herb and minerals. Incisive, racy flavours gripped by fine but firm tannins with a generous, warming character that this cuvee so rarely displays in its youth. An excellent mix of ripeness and freshness set in a solid tannic framework. This is Voerzio’s highest Barolo vineyard, situated in the commune of La Morra, at 430 metres above sea level.

critic reviews

95/100Antonio Galloni,Vinous

In 2011, the Barolo Le Serra benefits from its slightly higher elevation and cooler micro-climate, both of which give the wine an added element of freshness that is needed. Dark red stone fruits, flowers, spices and leather are all supported by the characteristic firm La Serra tannins, but the 2011 has a little more mid-palate depth and overall volume that serves to balance some of the angular contours that can be present. A gorgeous and complete wine, the La Serra is also an overachiever in 2011.
