Expert Reviews
The 2020 Barolo La Villa offers up an exotic mélange of black cherry, pine, menthol, licorice and spice. Expressive balsamic notes run through this wild yet alluring Barolo, adding tons of complexity. Aeration brings out the wine’s attractive structure—there’s certainly plenty of power and Monforte muscle. I would give this a few years in bottle to soften.
The wine strikes an engaging chord with a nose rich in baking spices, cracked pepper, and dried herbs, grounded by an undercurrent of forest floor and the black-raspberry preserves. It fills the mouth with density, brimming with ripe red berries, yet remains lifted with tannins that are sweet and well-integrated, lending a structure that frames the fruit without diminishing its vibrancy. This wine delivers an intriguing contrast, offering a different nuance with each sip. Drink now through 2045
Fragrant and mineral Barolo with red berries, grapefruit peel, mild spices and ground pepper on the nose. Polished and caressing on the palate, it has medium body and very fine, well-integrated tannins. Smooth and very approachable. Drink or hold.
