Tasting notes
The 2015 Barolo is a very pretty wine in its peer group. Lifted and understated in feel, the 2015 will be ready to drink with minimal cellaring. Spice, rose petal, mint, sweet red cherry and citrus are all laced together. Medium in body and gracious, with plenty of Nebbiolo persistence, the 2015 is just plain delicious.

The 2015 Barolo stands on firm ground thanks to the dark and savory qualities that lift heavily from the bouquet. This wine is saturated and rich with dark aromas that are firmly stitched together with spice, licorice and pressed blue flowers. There is power and richness at the deep inner core of this wine. It will unfold and become softer with time (perhaps five years or more).
A bright, fruit-focused Barolo that has a subtly meaty edge with abundant red cherries that follow through to the fresh, succulent palate. Drink or hold.
