Barolo DOCG Serra 2016 - Giovanni Rosso

Tasting notes

"The Giovanni Rosso 2016 Barolo Serra shows a dark and richer quality of fruit (next to the Cerretta) with black cherry and plum, backed by clayey aromas with grilled herb and camphor ash. Both these wines are beautifully characteristic of Serralunga d'Alba, known for its powerful and rich interpretations of Nebbiolo. I very much admire the tannic management shown by this wine from the Serra vineyard. It is a little tight and astringent at this young stage of course, but it also shows an inner silkiness that should serve nicely as the wine continues its bottle evolution."

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

“Managed by Davide Rosso, son of the late Giovanni Rosso, this winery has become a shining star over the past ten years. If you believe that Barolo needs a decade or so to become drinkable, you need to taste the offerings of Giovanni Rosso, as these are among the most approachable Barolos from Serralunga d’Alba. This is another traditional producer, maturing his wines in large casks; that combined with fruit from several excellent sites in Serralunga, are the keys to the high quality of these wines. […] While these wines are more approachable upon release than many Barolo from Serralunga, make no mistake; they age well, often with peak drinking at 15-20 years of age.”
– Tom Hyland on Giovanni Rosso, Forbes, March 2020
