Vinous Antonio Galloni - 27 Jun 25
The 2016 Barolo Monvigliero from Comm. G.B. Burlotto is a total stunner. Floral, deep and so expressive, the 2016 captures all the best the vintage and this great site had to offer. Readers lucky enough to own the 2016 can enjoy it now, although further cellaring will only bring out more nuance and complexity. Magnificent.

Barolo

Barolo, the "King of Wines," is a prestigious red from Piedmont, Italy, made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes. Known for deep complexity, Barolo offers rich flavours of dark cherries, roses, truffles, and spices, with high acidity and firm tannins. It ages exceptionally well, evolving in depth and nuance. Barolo's diverse terroirs create a range of styles, from powerful to delicate. Top producers include Gaja, Bruno Giacosa, Giuseppe Rinaldi, and Marchesi di Barolo, all of whom exemplify Barolo's tradition and quality.
