Vite Colte Essenze Barolo di Monforte 2016

Lovely plum, strawberry and orange-peel character with hints of flowers. It’s full-bodied with chewy tannins that are balanced and polished at the end. Medium to long finish. Give this a year or two to soften. Try after 2023 [to 2036]. Score – 93. (jamessuckling.com, July 2, 2021)
