Roberto Voerzio - Barolo Brunate 2011

The winery was founded in 1986 in La Morra, a village in the heart of the Langhe, always known for its vineyards, some of which were mentioned in the municipalities books since 1350. 24 months in used barriques and 15hl casks, 8 months in steel, 8 months in bottle. "The 2011 Barolo Brunate is one of the most tannic and vertical wines in the range, both attributes it has shown every time I tasted it prior to bottling. A powerful, brooding Barolo, the Brunate hits the palate with notable density and structure. Today, the flavors are understandably quite primary, but that just bodes well for the future. Voerzio's Brunate is one of the most impressive wines of the year." - 96 points, Antonio Galloni Vinous Producer: Roberto Voerzio Country: Italy Region: Piedmont Varietal: Nebbiolo Appellation: Barolo Vintage: 2011 Size: 750ml
