Mai 2021 (Millésime 2018)

The 2018 vintage could be outstanding for Barolo, judging by the quality of balanced and tense Langhe Nebbiolos. This example from Azelia is not aged in oak, just stainless steel, and comes from Castiglione Falletto and Serralunga at medium to high altitude from vines averaging 20 years old. Slightly reductive at first then full of tension, it has wild strawberry, pomegranate and rose petal flavours integrated with velvety tannins. There's a grainy texture then a lean yet savoury finish.
