Aged a little over two years in French oak, this is a polished, modern Barolo: rose and violet, sweet spice and red cherry, with silky tannins over a firm core. The 2021 vintage is hailed as a benchmark for the region, ripe and refined, built to reward a decade in the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\"Monforte d'Alba. Just mid ruby with orange tinges. Intense, perfumed cherry with notes of gingerbread but much more complex than it sounds. Supple cherry fruit with a hint of sweet spice and fine chewy tannins. Almost too easy to like. But that is deceptive as this needs more age to show its true colours.
