Achille Boroli's 2012 Barolo is a surefooted and steady expression of Nebbiolo from a warm vintage. The quality of fruit is slightly less expressive, yet the wine exhibits tight lines and sweet berry flavors nonetheless. Licorice, tar, tobacco and truffle aromas are neatly packed in at the back. The mouthfeel emphasizes a point of cherry sourness that may not fully integrate.

Cherry, currant, menthol and earth flavors ride the vibrant structure in this sleek red. Shows more structure than fruit today. On the linear, compact side. Best from 2020 through 2033. 1,650 cases made, 150 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
