The 2000 Barolo Arborina is impossible to resist. Layers of dark, sensual fruit wrap around the palate effortlessly in this intense, layered Barolo. This shows more depth and richness than the straight Barolo, with just as much class. Altare’s 2000 Barolo Arborina represents the height of elegance. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2025. Elio Altare has always been a huge proponent of the 2000 vintage. Retasting his 2000s, it’s easy to see why. The wines have great intensity of fruit, approachable personalities and plenty of structure to support continued cellaring. I am thrilled to have the wines in my cellar.
