Claudio Fenocchio's base 2011 Barolo shows simple lines, medium intensity and quick approachability. The wine is executed in a classic style with long maceration times to increase color density and aromatic intensity followed by long aging in Slovenian oak casks. I have lingering doubts concerning the lackluster bouquet. The wine presents a flat, one-dimensional set of dark fruit and spice aromas that show little potential for a future evolution.
