Fontanafredda Serralunga d'Alba Barolo 2018

Size: 750ml

Wine Spectator: 92, James Suckling: 92

"Serralunga Barolo is characterized by great structure and power. Dry and tannic, but with velvety texture and great balance. It has notes of vanilla, spices, withered roses and underbrush. balance. The finish is very long-lasting. Ideal with hearty red meat dishes and medium or mature cheeses." —winemaker

Wine Anthology Team Review- A terrific example of what could be done with Nebbiolo, this Barolo is one of the most highly touted wines of the year. Dried floral flavors walk hand in hand with citrus fruit and earthy elements combining to make this northern Italian classic. Often referred to as the "King of Italian Reds", Barolo, when made right, could be a truly amazing wine to behold. Do yourself a favor and decorate your holiday meal with this beauty of a bottle. Enjoy!

#78 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2022

"This is a lovely expression of cherry, rose and mineral flavors, with freshness and purity. Shows a solid underpinning of dense yet refined tannins. Long finish. Best from 2025 through 2042. 17,000 cases made, 5,100 cases imported." —Wine Spectator

"A tinge of orange to the cherry color of this. Slightly musty, but pleasant aromas of dried cherries and raspberries with hints of leather and dust, as well as dried flowers. Medium-to full-bodied with a good core of fruit and fine tannin and plenty of acidity. Long, bright finish. Vegan. Sustainable. Needs a year or two to meld together." —James Suckling
