French oak aromas, cherries and blackcurrants, integrated, bold tannins. Fairly easygoing for this style. (RH)

The 2005 Barolo Serralunga is a relatively forward Barolo with an attractive bouquet of tar, spices, licorice and leather. The wine reveals excellent concentration, depth and fine overall balance. This is a strong effort from Fontanafredda.

The 2005 Barolo Serralunga is a relatively forward Barolo with an attractive bouquet of tar, spices, licorice and leather. The wine reveals excellent concentration, depth and fine overall balance. This is a strong effort from Fontanafredda. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2020. These 2005s are the finest Barolos I can recall tasting here. The estate seems to have toned down the super-ripe style of recent years and the results are striking. As I have written here before, Fontanafredda owns some of the most prized vineyards in all of Piedmont, and clearly has potential for making important wines of the highest level.
