WineSaint

Gorgeous energy from this multi-vineyard blend of Monvigliero, Neirane, and Rocche dell'Olmo. Dark cherry and rose petals flow with remarkable grace, while hints of tar and mint add complexity. Medium-bodied with polished tannins that feel unusually approachable for young Barolo. The understated jewel of the portfolio. Expressive now yet built for decades.
