Note di degustazione
Cordero's 2001 Barolo Vigna Enrico VI is the darkest of the wines. It opens with a complex, balsamic nose of spices, licorice and menthol followed by gorgeous flavors of dark, stewed fruits and spices with superb persistence on the palate, finishing with elegant tannins. Although this is the most compelling of the three Barolos I can't help thinking that the famous and historic Villero vineyard has so much more to say.

(aged in 50% new and 50% one-year-old Taransaud Burgundy barriques Good bright dark red, a bit deeper than the Monfalletto. Lower-toned than the Monfalletto on the nose but still quite aromatic, with less floral perfume and more charry, smoky oak. Rich but quite backward, and much more clenched today than the Monfalletto. Intriguing notes of resin, Cuban tobacco and spices. Finishes with powerful, youthfully tough tannins. Enrico Cordero says this is more open than the Monfalletto, but today that's not the impression I get.
