Goedhuis, April 2021
This 2017 Barolo certainly does not disappoint. Mineral notes sit atop sour cherry, bright pomegranate, and dry flowers. Everything is held perfectly in place by the firm, grippy tannins and lithe acidity. It is an undeniably good Barolo that will taste incredible from the outset, but it also has decades of cellaring potential.
Region
Piedmont
Piedmont is located in the north western corner of Italy. Though several grape varieties are prominent such as Dolcetto, Barbera and Moscato, it is Nebbiolo that reigns supreme. It produces wines that are not particularly deep in colour, yet they are perfumed, powerful and can age for many years. Due to the ethereal nature of the Nebbiolo grape and the numerous single vineyard wines, many compare top examples to grand cru Burgundies of the Côte de Nuits.Mountainous, its vineyards are cut into the hillsides forming terraces reminiscent of the Mosel Valley in Germany and the northern Rhone Valley in France. The two most notable appellations are Barolo and Barbaresco.
