Note di degustazione
The 2018 Barolo Mosconi is superb. It offers up a complex mélange of rose petal, dried herbs, iron, graphite, smoke, incense, scorched earth and blood orange, capturing all the complexity that makes the best Barolos from this site so compelling. Powerful and deep, yet also quite elegant, the 2018 is another fine Barolo from an estate that has undergone a pretty significant stylistic shift over the last handful of years.

Compared to the Ornato, the 2018 Barolo Mosconi (with fruit from Monforte d'Alba) shows a tighter and more compact quality with a direct, linear and powerful approach. The bouquet builds in vertical intensity, starting with tart fruit aromas and culminating with tar, rusted nail and camphor ash. That aromatic ascent comes at you quickly, and the wine ultimately settles on a very wide, all-encompassing performance.
Monforte d'Alba. Mid ruby with orange tinges. Almost explosive minerality on the nose with hints of sour cherry and a suggestion of savoury oak. Complex but still holding back on the nose. Gorgeous supple fruit with polished, finely ground but firm tannins, almost a little Serralunga-like. Bags to chew on and spectacular multi-layered aromas on the finish. (WS)
