G.B. Burlotto Barolo Castelletto 2018

Dark cherry and plum richness flows with remarkable aromatic complexity. Tobacco, leather and espresso weaving through floral mint and sage. The palate shows Monforte's characteristic power but wrapped in silky, enveloping fruit that feels more generous than Burlotto's typical Verduno holdings. Fabio Alessandria's instincts about this 1973-planted site prove sound, delivering sophisticated Barolo with genuine depth.
