Barolo, Italy

WineSaint

Dark cherry and rose petal aromatics lead into a wine of remarkable grace. The 2015 shows beautiful depth from its four-vineyard blend. Pernanno, Sarmassa, Rochettevino, and Cerretta. With supple tannins that feel almost velvety. Spice and mineral notes build on the long finish. Drinking beautifully now but will evolve through 2035.

Elio Altare

Elio Altare is one of the founding figures of the Barolo Boys movement, credited with modernizing Langhe winemaking in the 1980s through shorter macerations and French oak. His estate remains a benchmark for the progressive wing of Piedmont.
