The 2012 'La Villa' Barolo is a classic Barolo in every sense of the word. It slowly opens with pretty red fruits and cherries woven together with licorice, rose petal and wet stones all coming together beautifully in the glass. On the palate this offers a medium body with an elegant personality, which is supported by fine, silky tannins, a firm structure and lovely balance from start to finish. Give this another year or two, but there is already plenty to like. (Best 2016-2027) - August, 2016 (JD)
