Burlotto, Barolo Monvigliero Vintage:2017 Angelo Gaja doesnt say too

Angelo Gaja doesnt say too much about his wines these days

with an elegantly textural attack and a creamy core of fruit that's underpinned by a bright but nicely integrated spine of acidity

There is excellent richness to the concentrated and beautifully textured broad-shouldered flavors that possess focused power and a subtle minerality that really comes up on the youthfully austere and strikingly long finish

delicious and very pinot flavors yet the finish is intensely earthy and serious

don’t think about touching bottles until at least 2020

Burlotto, Barolo Monvigliero Vintage:2017 Angelo Gaja doesnt say tooThe 2016 Barolo Monvigliero is utterly spellbinding in its profoundness. In this vintage, the Monvigliero moves into shades of more blue toned fruit. Whole clusters, always 100%, are remarkably integrated. Rose petal, lavender, mint, crushed flowers, wild red berries, blueberry, blood orange and mint are some of the many notes that grace this exceptional, silky Barolo. The 2016 was fermented with low temperatures and spent two months on the skins.
