Description

2020 Barolo, Castelletto, Mauro Veglio, Piedmont, ItalyAccording to Alessandro, this vineyard has the highest proportion of limestone in Barolo, and so represents a Serralungan austerity and power (the limestone) married to Monfortes muscle. The palate represents this exactly, with a lush overtone of dark fruit, cinched by a belt of fine grained tannins. The wine appears both hedonistic and understatedly assertive. The lick of spicy freshness that defines the vintage rounds out the finish. Mark Pardoe MW,

The last day of harvest was October 31

It's one of the most complete Clarets available

this is a pleasant wine with a long finish

Our Sauternes has been made by Château Suduiraut

This Barolo offers up old-vine depth

slowly unravelling

with hints of wet pebble and a mineralite and a touch of lime juice

benefitting from the winemaking skill of the team at Las Cases

close to the top of the slope before it falls away to St Aubin
