Perfumed and graceful, built on mineral backbone rather than sheer power. Rose petal, cherry and wet stone aromatics lead to a palate of remarkable precision. The fruit shows restraint and elegance, with silky tannins providing structure without weight. A Villero that emphasizes terroir over muscle. Drink 2028-2040.

Giacomo Fenocchio

A traditionalist Barolo estate working several of the appellation's most respected crus, including Bussia, Cannubi, and Villero. Long macerations and large Slavonian oak define the house style.
