Note di degustazione
Barolo. Mid to deep ruby. Leafy cherry with a hint of shoe polish and tingling back pepper and a suggestion of oak. Quite a light, fresh red-fruit palate with really attractive fine chewy tannins and plenty of acidity. Not a whole lot of fruit on the finish and conveys an overall sense of lightness. (WS)

The 2018 Barolo Bricco delle Viole (with 6,000 bottles made) opens to a medium rich appearance followed by very distinct aromas of wild rose, grilled herb, mint and freshly milled white pepper. The wine's texture is lean but fine-tuned and elegant. These qualities shape a long and polished mouthfeel. Fruit comes from a one-hectare parcel at a breezy 420 meters in elevation.
The 2018 Barolo Bricco delle Viole is weightless, ethereal and classic in feel, as Barolos from this site so often are. Crushed flowers, mint, sweet red cherry, anise and rose petal are nicely lifted. Marco Marengo has done a nice job in taming the typically incisive Bricco dell Viole tannins. This is beautifully done.
