TASTING NOTES
92pts - Jeb Dunnuck
"The 2019 Barolo pours a deep ruby and comes from a single parcel just outside of Bussia in Monforte d'Alba. It saw 40 days of maceration and was fermented in stainless steel tanks before being aged in 25- to 35-hectoliter Slavonian oak casks. Alluring and ripe, it reveals notes of balsamic, black cherry, and purple flowers. This medium-bodied red has moderate tannins, with elegant freshness throughout, and expresses wild raspberry fruit and dusty earth. It is an outstanding value to drink over the next 8-10 years."
90pts - Vinous
"The 2019 Barolo is a an attractive, open-knit wine to drink over the next handful of years. Ripe, succulent red-toned fruit, new leather, spice, tobacco and cedar lend nuance to this supple, juicy Barolo from Fenocchio. Time brings out a more serious side here."

"Forest floor, wild berry and grilled herb aromas take shape in the glass along with a whiff of leather. On the savory, straightforward palate, bright acidity and taut tannins accompany juicy black cherry, baking spice and star anise."
