Note di degustazione
The Oddero 2017 Barolo Villero is another surprise hit from a vintage that did not make it easy for vintners in the Langa. This wine shows classic profile, with plenty of blue flower, violet and crushed stone. The fruit tones are bluish in character with blueberry and wild plum. Compared to the super long and polished Rocche di Castiglione (also located in the village of Castiglione Falletto), this wine from Villero shows a bit less length and persistence overall.

The 2017 Barolo Villero is delicate and lifted in this vintage, with impeccable balance and tons of class. Villero is not an easy site to find balance, but the 2017 Oddero sure has it. Sweet cherry, crushed raspberry, rose petal, orange peel and cinnamon give the 2017 lovely aromatic nuance to match its mid-weight personality.
Castiglione Falletto. Youthful mid ruby. Subtle, savoury yet concentrated cherry and raspberry fruit and just a little bit finer on the nose than the Brunate of the same vintage, if a little peppery from the alcohol and clearly stony/minerally. Elegant palate weight and succulent, sappy fruit with a load of finely grained tannins that are a little demanding right now. Really refreshing, fragrant and almost light in its constitution on the finish compared with the tannic charge. Very good length but just a tiny bit lightweight, at least for the moment. (WS)
