Unlike the previous particularly early vintage, the 2019 vintage will be remembered for having developed in a more usual way. Nebbiolo was harvested in the second part of October with analytical parameters that are "classic", so good sugar content and excellent polyphenolic framework suitable for ensuring structured wines with very high aging potential. A vintage defined as "great" even by the main tasters of the printing industry and that will be much sought after by collectors around the world. Abbona Barolo Classico as usual wants to combine the traditional and noblest characteristics of Barolo with a pleasant ease of drinking, with silky and mellow tannins that allow the consumption of this wine even immediately as well as rest in the cellar for several years.
This Barolo fits neatly in the whole modern/traditional dichotomy. Not too dirty, not too clean and vanillay. The man behind the ice cream counter would object to vanilla in a waffle cone. There is an ample display of herbs and all the good tootsie roll agenda we know and love with Barolo. Flavors and aromas all over the place. Bright cherry, orange skin; cool, fresh and jazzy. It's Barolo folks!
