G.B. Burlotto Barolo 2020

WA95; The Comm. G.B. Burlotto 2020 Barolo has delicate floral aromas with almond blossom and red fruits. To the palate, the wine shows a very tight and compact texture, tonic and polished, with lingering lavender bud, some grilled herb, sour cherry, tart flavors, glossy tannins and nice acidity. This is one for the purists. Production is 11,000 bottles.

JD93: Medium red in color, the 2020 Barolo is inviting and fruity. Its characteristic elegant profile features notes of pristinely preserved strawberries, candied roses, apricot, and sweet tea. Medium-bodied and fresh, with delicate, sweet fruit floating through the palate, it has ultra-fine tannins, and a clean, long finish. It’s easy to love this now, and it will have a wide open window for enjoyment over the next 5-7 years.
