Wine Enthusiast - 92 points

Aromas of underbrush, red berry, blue flower and forest floor waft out of the glass. On the full-bodied palate, fresh acidity accompanies morello cherry, licorice and a hint of eucalyptus alongside tight, grainy tannins that leave a drying finish.

Winemaker Notes

The vineyard, wholly exposed at midday, shines like a jewel in the splendid winegrowing area of Verduno. Already one hundred years ago, the Monvigliero hill was esteemed as an amazing area by all the producers of Barolo. Paola Sordo Barolo Monvigliero DOCG shows fine chromatic array, restrained intensity that stabilises over time. The bouquet is rich, full and lingering and recalls fresh fruit and berries with sensations of sweet spices, alpine hay and forest floor. Very good structure; acidity and tannins are present in a pleasant balance. This wine is at the height of its reputation.
