Barolo Vigneto Albarella
Barolo Vigneto Albarella
The Barolo Vigneto Albarella comes from the vineyard of the same name in Barolo. The soil is mainly clay (in contrast to La Morra where we mainly find sandy soils). This clay soil gives the wine a more intense colour and aromas of black fruit, spiciness, flowers, earthy notes and liquorice. Maturation takes place in barriques (50%) and ‘botte grande’ (50%). In the mouth, a very aromatic barolo with juicy tannins and pleasant acids. Very long aftertaste.
Combines with meat dishes, game, truffle.

Reviews
The 2019 Barolo Albarella is a powerful, austere young Barolo. Firm tannins and bright acids give the Albarella its spine of energy. The Albarella does not offer the charm of the Rocche (vintage differences notwithstanding) and yet all the elements are empeccably woven together. Black tea, lavender, spice and new leather build into the potent, sustained finish.
