Score 91/100 · Drink 2021-2031, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Oct 2020
The 2016 Barolo is a terrific choice for near and medium-term drinking. Sweet red berry fruit, mint, spice, cedar and pipe tobacco all grace this airy, finessed Barolo. The 2016 can be enjoyed with minimal cellaring, although a bit of time in bottle will help soften the tannins a touch. This is very nicely done.
