Comm. G.B. Burlotto Barolo docg Rosso

Deep black almandine with black reflections. The bouquet is rich, with rosa canina and deft berry fruit supported by pleasant spice. On the palate it’s full and rich, with elegant cherry fruit supported by tannins that have a lively youth to them and by deft leathery mineral acidity that flows into a dry berry fruit tannic finish. It’s very young, and though one could drink it now with a steak it needs time, a couple of years, at least, and will do very impressive things in a decade or more. A wine that will be impressive if you give it time, in a fairly traditional style

FOR THE 2014 VINTAGE
Burlotto’s 2014 Barolo is delicate, gracious and very pretty. Floral and supremely inviting, it is a fabulous wine for the year, and the midweight, perfumed style of the vintage comes through loud and clear. In 2014, Burlotto did not make their Barolo Acclivi. Instead, all of the wine that would have gone into that blend went into this, the entry-level bottling, which is a testament to Fabio Alessandria’s commitment to delivering not just quality but also value among his more affordable wines.
