    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note
    Castello di Verduno, Barolo, 2014

    The only Barolo Castello di Verduno made in 2014. This is a blend of their two best Crus 70% Massara and 30% Monvigliero. Beautifully translucent, open-knit fruit, fragrant raspberry and strawberry flavours, fresh hints of raspberry leaf and cherry blossom. Crisp, clear gentle but with some supple structure, a joy to drink. Aged for 18 months in large used oak cask.

    The 2016 Barolo is a pretty and accessible mid-weight Barolo that will drink well with minimal cellaring. Sweet pipe tobacco, cedar, mint, dried flowers and crushed berries are all nicely laced together. Understated and gracious, the 2016 offers considerable appeal. Sweet floral and spice notes linger on the expansive, layered finish. This is very nicely done, especially within its peer group.
