Vinous Tasting Note

The 2018 Barolo Sotto Castello di Novello shows the modest structure of the year, and yet it has just enough aromatic nuance and depth to be intriguing. Readers should expect a relatively light-bodied style. Cinnamon, dried cherry, mint, tobacco and cedar develop nicely in the glass. The finish is persistent and harmonious, for the year.
