Note di degustazione
The 2015 Barolo Villero offers richness and darkness with fruit from Castiglione Falletto, and it's one of the more intense wines I tasted within this selection. The Villero is a balanced and polished Barolo that opens to nicely integrated fruit and spice tones, expertly interwoven and united. The wine has a beautiful entry to the palate. Indeed, this pretty wine presented a united front, with seamless and graceful integration.

The 2015 Barolo Villero is a very pretty, mid-weight wine. Silky tannins and beautifully expressive aromatics give the Villero considerable finesse. On the palate, though, the 2015 is far less expressive. That is not entirely surprising, as the Villero often needs a few years to truly blossom. Sweet floral and spice notes start to open with time in the glass, but the Villero is not an especially forthcoming 2015 Barolo.
Aromas of praline, honey, orange peel and cherries follow through to a full body, chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Beautiful intensity and power. Drink from 2022.
Castiglione Falletto. Lustrous mid ruby with orange tinges. Fine, aromatic, yet compact nose with sweet, red fruits. Almost a little floral and perfumed with stony minerally notes. Much more closed on the palate, yet with plenty of concentration and finely balanced with integrated acidity running through. Fine, bitter-sweet chewy tannins that build up on the finish. Closes up and needs much more time than the nose would initially have you believe. Its austerity doesn't embrace right now, but bodes well for the future. (WS)
