Vinous 94+ Points: “The 2019 Barolo Castelletto La Villa is gorgeous. Dark and ample on the palate, the 2019 offers up a compelling mélange of black cherry, plum, licorice, cloves, tobacco and leather. This strapping, potent Monforte Barolo has a ton to offer. The 2019 is an especially fine edition.”
James Suckling 94 Points: “Subtle aromas of cherries and cranberries with notes of dried herbs, spices and moist earth. Hints of tar, too. Medium- to full-bodied, focused and balanced with firm tannin structure and a chalky finish. Lingering and velvety. Better after 2025.”
Winemaker Notes: “This wine takes its name from an area of the Cru of Castelletto. The selected grapes in the oldest part of the vineyard enable to obtain a full-bodied wine. The color is garnet red with orange reflections. The bouquet is complex, it ranges from licorice to the jam. This elegant wine is aged in French barriques and in large oak barrels. Drink with roasted meat, game, and aged cheeses.”
