Fontanafredda Proprietà in Fontanafredda Barolo 2017

Woodland berries, truffle, pipe tobacco and a whiff of violet shape the subtle, enticing nose. Elegantly structured and full-bodied, the generous palate doles out juicy Morello cherry, crushed raspberry and baking spice enveloped in tightly knit, refined tannins. A licorice note lingers on the close. It’s already rather immediate but will also offer years of enjoyment. Drink 2022-2029. Score – 95. (Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, July 1, 2021)
