L’Astemia Pentita Terlo Barolo 2016

Exquisite floral nose with poised red fruits. Sleek attack, polished and concentrated, with fine depth of fruit and integrated tannins. There’s a lot of alcohol, but sufficient acidity to cut the richness of fruit and give exemplary length. [Drink into late 2030s.] Score – 96. (Decanter World Wine Awards, 2020)
