This 2021 Barolo from Sandrone’s ‘Le Vigne’ bottling, despite its youth, reveals the classic hallmarks of Nebbiolo. On the nose, expect tightly wound but intense aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and cranberry, intertwined with delicate floral notes of rose petals and violets. As it opens, subtle hints of forest floor and a mineral backbone may emerge. The palate is full-bodied, driven by high acidity and firm, grippy tannins that promise significant aging potential. The fruit is fresh and vibrant, leading to a long, structured finish that leaves an impression of red fruit and a savory complexity.
The warm-but-not hot vintage of 2018 gave the winery a Le Vigne Barolo of great delicacy and excellent structure. The nose is forceful but not explosive – it is balanced and open, expanding upwards in the glass with spicy notes framing black and red.
