Oddero Barolo Brunate 2016

Oddero's Brunate is Nebbiolo at its most seductive — powerful and yet see-through in that way only this grape achieves. Dried rose petals, orange zest, crushed mint and a deep iron-earth core. The tannins are firm but finely knit, with bright acidity drawing everything toward a long, mineral finish. What separates this from mere power is the nuance — layer after layer opens up with time in the glass. Exceptional now, but there's more to come. Drink 2024–2045.
