Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo Villero 2016
Red
Barolo, Italy
8.0
WineSaint
Austere and powerful, built like a fortress. Dark cherry and rose petals emerge through layers of graphite and dried herbs. The tannins are formidable. Gripping and unyielding. While earth, leather and violet notes build slowly in the glass. This brooding Villero needs a decade minimum to show its true colors. The fruit concentration suggests exceptional longevity.
