Azelia’s elegant 2016 Barolos | Bottles & magnums drinking beautifully this winter

Azelia is a standout Barolo producer and an unbeatable source of sensibly priced, site-specific wines. As Antonio Galloni writes, "Azelia remains one of the undiscovered jewels in Barolo. The wines have been terrific for some time, and prices are exceedingly fair considering the quality of what goes into the bottle”. 

2016 is considered one of the best vintages in the history of Barolo. A recent tasting reminded us just how beautiful the 2016s from Azelia are and, while they will age sensationally, we found that couple of hours in the decanter revealed their hidden depths. They are just entering their long drinking window, meaning that collectors and drinkers alike will find enormous pleasure in these wines.
