Barolo, Italy

WineSaint

Rose petals and crushed strawberries define this graceful, medium-bodied Barolo. Shows lovely polish and refinement, though the fruit remains quite primary at this stage. The tannins are silky and well-integrated, but greater complexity awaits.

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.
