Barolo, Monvigliero, 2017

A serious, backboned Barolo that, despite its solid and compact tannic structure, offers refreshing fruit and clearly delineated flavours. Peppery dark berries washed over salts and stones with a cleansing chalkiness to the finish and a warming glow of sweet spice, all of which are set in a steadying but silky tannic framework. A steep, chalk south/ south west facing vineyard sitting at 280 metres above sea level above San Lorenzo. After a month of gentle the wine is then aged for 3 years in large wooden vats.
