2018 Barolo Albarella, Serio & Battista Borgogno


2018 Barolo Albarella, Serio & Battista Borgogno
I tasted the 2019 in January 2023 at the cantina - Barolista: The Barolo Boys In Piedmont - Visit To Serio & Battista Borgogno.
The 2018 is the first vintage of Albarella, a MGA in Barolo, from the cantina, made in only 700 bottles with four different labels. The nose is low keyed and handsome with notes of dried strawberries, red currants, nailpolish and licorice.
The taste is young and tight with silky tannins, gorgeous red fruit, hints of tobacco and a long, linear finish. Very fine. 6+ years.
