Barolo, 2013
Brilliant, vivid flavours, light on its feet, pure and clear yet with great length of flavour. There is a distinctively La Morra character to this, ethereal red berry fruits and fresh herbs, gentle notes of spice and sweet juicy strawberries. A stunningly elegant ‘regular’ Barolo that is a blend of wine from Crus vineyards predominanty in La Morra including Coera, Roncaglie, Boiolo and Fossati. The wine is aged for 24 months in 20% new oak barriques.
critic reviews
The 2013 Barolo is powerful, dense and sweet, with plenty of succulent red fruit, herb, spice and floral notes. I would prefer to drink it over the next few years, before the slightly vegetal notes that lurk beneath become more apparent than they are today. The 2013 offers only modest depth and complexity in its peer group.
