Tasting Notes
Vinous 90
The 2016 Barolo is a very pretty and expressive wine. Crushed red berry, mint, cinnamon and a touch of orange zest grace this mid-weight, super-expressive Barolo from Borgogno. All the elements are so well balanced. This is very nicely done.
Anticipated maturity: 2021-2031
Robert Parker 91
The Borgogno 2016 Barolo wears a light and delicate fabric with a lacework of detailed and subtle aromas. Nothing is too big or too bold in this wine that adopts a genuine and traditional approach to Nebbiolo. Indeed, it could be criticized for coming in so far under the intensity threshold, especially for a classic vintage such as this. Soft cherry and cassis segue to spice, smoke, rusty nail and licorice. The wine should flesh out with more cellaring.
Anticipated maturity: 2023-2036
