Monchiero Barolo 'Rocche di Castiglione' 2021
piedmont,
italy
$170
The ‘flagship’ & one of the greatest vineyards in all of Piedmont. And Monchiero own one of the better parcels – with high sand content in the soil, producing fine tannins & highly aromatic Barolo.
96 Points, Kerin O'Keefe – “…Consistently turning out excellent wines vintage after vintage, it’s a mystery to me why this estate flies under the radar for many Barolo lovers…"
96+ Points, Tip Top Tipple - Gary Walsh (TWF) - …Yes! This wine has it all… You could pay twice as much for a wine from this vineyard at this quality level, yet Monchiero, bless them, are keeping it real…."
96 Points, 5 Stars - The Real Review (Stephen Blandford for Huon Hooke) – “…Subtle power and depth, finesse and balance…."
