Note di degustazione
The 2019 Barolo pours a deep ruby and comes from a single parcel just outside of Bussia in Monforte d'Alba. It saw 40 days of maceration and was fermented in stainless steel tanks before being aged in 25- to 35-hectoliter Slavonian oak casks. Alluring and ripe, it reveals notes of balsamic, black cherry, and purple flowers. This medium-bodied red has moderate tannins, with elegant freshness throughout, and expresses wild raspberry fruit and dusty earth. It is an outstanding value to drink over the next 8-10 years. Claudio Fenocchio is the fifth-generation winemaker for this estate based in Monforte d’Alba. They practice long fermentations and maceration and utilize large Slavonian oak. In the vineyard, they practice organic viticulture.

The 2019 Barolo is a an attractive, open-knit wine to drink over the next handful of years. Ripe, succulent red-toned fruit, new leather, spice, tobacco and cedar lend nuance to this supple, juicy Barolo from Fenocchio. Time brings out a more serious side here.
Cask sample. Single vineyard facing the Gramolere crus in Monforte d’Alba at 400 m of elevation. Eastern exposure. Deep ruby. Open-knit cherry nose with balsamic notes. Supple and generous and with delicious, chewy tannins. Lush yet cool. (WS)
