The Ettore Germano 2019 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba has a robust fruit profile with dried cherry and blackcurrant. Those aromas segue to dried rosemary, licorice, iron ore and red brick. That metallic earthy quality is a trait often found in the full-bodied Nebbiolos from Serralunga d'Alba. This is a production of 9,500 bottles.

The 2018 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba shows some mild ripeness with dried raspberry and prune that appear with just enough intensity to remind you of the uneven vintage (that caused more issues with the younger vines). Along with those sun-ripened aromas, this wine offers the power we associate with Serralunga d'Alba with distinctive aromas of blood orange, iron ore and dark spice.

Macerated cherry and plum fruit flavors are framed by eucalyptus, iron and black tea accents in this dense, muscular red. The tannins are assertive now, yet there is ample fruit here and a chalky sensation lives a lasting impression.
