Tasting Notes

Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Jun 15
A fabulous example of the vintage, the 2000 Barolo Vigneto Arborina offers gorgeous exuberance, yet also retains considerable freshness, especially compared to so many other wines of the year. The flavors are dark and boldly sketched throughout, but it is the wine's voluptuous, layered personality that stands out most. Like so many wines in this tasting, the 2000 is a wine I would have like to spend more time with, as it just keeps getting better and better in the glass.

Mature mid ruby with bright orange rim. Deep, multilayered nose of spice, garden herbs, cherry and iron. Subtle cherry fruit on the palate with underlying, grainy tannins. Grip and fruit concentration on the finish. Seductive yet serious. (WS)

Barolo Vineyard Fine Wine

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.
