Luigi Baudana Barolo Comune di Serralunga 2021

Nebbiolo | Serralunga d'Alba, Barolo

The Luigi Baudana 2021 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d’Alba shows rich fruit delivered as cooked cherry with background tones of cinnamon, red rose and ferrous earth. The tannins are sweet but also firm, and you get plenty of streamlined fruit on the close. The three sites used in the blend are Baudana, Costa Bella and Cerretta.Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate 94 Points AG 92
