2006 Barolo, Serralunga d'Alba, Az. Agr. Giovanni Rosso

Barolo, Serralunga d'Alba, Az. Agr. Giovanni Rosso
A tiny strip of vineyard on the way into Baudana, Serralunga, planted a long time ago and now producing tiny clusters of Nebbiolo that bear more than a passing resemblance to a Richebourg...he wishes! But as part of the blend, it adds a profundity and lushness, making this benchmark, Vosne-esque Barolo.

Davide’s particularly chuffed with his 2006s. This a blend of his 7 Serralunga vineyards, vinified in stainless steel, cement and large French oak botte. It captures both the high quality, licorice zing of the vintage along with the magical minerality of the village.

Barolo, Serralunga d'Alba, Az. Agr. Giovanni Rosso

The 2006 Barolo Serralunga is a pretty, up-front wine with an attractive juiciness to its cherries, dried herbs, tobacco and spices. The Serralunga is already rather forward and expressive, making it an excellent candidate for near-term enjoyment, particularly if given some air in advance. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2016.

This is a beautiful set of 2006 Baroli from Davide Rosso, a young grower who continues to demonstrate significant promise.
