Barolo, Italy

WineSaint

Fenocchio's finest effort from 2014. Wild cherry and tar mingle with dried herbs and cedar, building powerfully in the glass. The structure is already harmonious. Supple tannins frame concentrated fruit without overwhelming. Mentholated intensity carries through a long, resonant finish. Drink 2027-2040.

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.
