Comm. G.B. Burlotto Barolo Monvigliero DOCG (2016)
As it was in G.B.’s day, the most extraordinary Burlotto wine is the magical Barolo from Verduno’s Monvigliero vineyard. But what makes Burlotto's wines from Monvigliero so special is not its high altitude, its limestone-rich soil or its 45-year old vines, but Monvigliero's hypnotic aromatic profile, which is unlike any other Barolo. Its aromas are astonishingly intense and instantly recognizable, with a perfume of Provençal black olive tapenade, cedar and truffle that is nothing short of spellbinding. And it could come from no place else on earth. It is the essence of its terroir.
