Giuseppe Rinaldi Barolo Riserva Selezionata Brunata 2008

Barolo, Italy

WineSaint

Voluptuous and heady, with tropical fruit and candied sweetness that pushes Brunata into uncharted territory. Rose petals, lychee and honeyed spice create an almost Burgundian richness, yet firm tannins anchor the exuberance. Rinaldi's restraint shows in the wine's balance despite the vintage's generosity. Drink 2018-2032.

Giuseppe Rinaldi

Barolo purist in Barolo's most traditionalist mold. Rinaldi farms Brunate and Bussia alongside declassified Langhe bottlings, working with long macerations, large old oak, and minimal intervention.
