Giacomo Fenocchio Castellero, Barolo DOCG, Italy 2019 Alois Lageder spiced character typical of Ginestra

spiced character typical of Ginestra Barolos but without the heft that can make some wines forbidding

A delicious second wine

Quality precision that makes it a marvellous pudding Champagne with red fruit tart

The Cuvée is a blend from La Rinconanda

and that too in a vintage like 2019

Giacomo Fenocchio Castellero, Barolo DOCG, Italy 2019 Alois Lageder spiced character typical of GinestraThe ridge that descends from Bussia, wedged between Cannubi Boschis and Pugnane, terminates in the Castellero MGA. Well known for its more poised style, it doesn't differ here: leafy lightness, dried cherry, bright mint and milky aromas are allied to a graceful, relaxing attack then firm tannins, fierce acidity and a fresh, juicy red currant and pomegranate fruit character. A dynamic finish. 94 Pts Decanter
