Barolo, 2020
Technically a 'commune di Verduno' Barolo, the 2020 offers up an array of dried spices and perfume, unmistakably of the village. Light and radiant and latterly peppery, with a rich seam of glowing red fruits and pressed rose petals. Fluid and engaging, another delicious, highly drinkable 2020. Produced from four vineyards, vinified separately. Boscatto, close to the La Morra border, brings power from the younger clay soils, whilst Campasso, Rodasca and Massara have similar soil compositions of primarily fossilised Sant’Agata marls. Massara has a bit more limestone than the others.
critic reviews
The 2020 Barolo is quite inviting right out of the gate. Layered and dynamic, with lovely energy, the 2020 is effusive and charming from start to finish, with notes of crushed flowers, mint, crushed red berry fruit and orange peel. Best of all, the 2020 will drink well from the get-go.
