While this is the estate's so-called \"entry\" Barolo, it overdelivers, capturing the depth, lift and classic tension that define great Nebbiolo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"321\" data-end=\"699\"\u003eVietti vinifies each cru separately to preserve character before blending. The result is a wine layered with rose, black raspberry, spice, violet and crushed herbs, underpinned by chalky tannins and brisk acidity. The 2021 vintage brings clarity and lift, offering both immediate appeal and cellaring potential. A standout vintage that rivals the precision of the cru bottlings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e – Explosive and seductive\u003cbr\u003e Aromas of plum, black and red cherries, blackberry, rose petals, tobacco, dried herbs, violets, and crushed stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e – Powerful and precise\u003cbr\u003e Juicy red berry fruit, blood orange, mint, licorice, and alpine herbs, supported by grainy tannins and lively acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e – Structured and age-worthy\u003cbr\u003e Firm and chalky with lingering herbal, leathery, and mineral nuances—built for long-term cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “Red fruit, strawberries, raspberries, dried herbs, violets, and crushed stones.
