CHW Confidential
Like its Barbaresco cousin, Barolo is a true icon. Celebrated as a symbol of apex Italian wine, it's a region known for intense, unmistakable reds that has few peers around the world.
Lot 762 is an Italian beauty. With perfect winery-direct provenance from a top producer in the heart of the Langhe, the wine is an exceptional offering that the Nebbiolo lovers among you are undoubtedly going to love. 2016 was a classic late-ripening vintage in Barolo, known for balance, harmony, and depth across the board. Unsurprisingly, it’s one of the top rated vintages of the decade, and Galloni in Vinous described the 2016s as “full of truly spectacular, breathtaking wines that captures all the pedigree that Nebbiolo and Barolo are capable of.” Despite the wine's relative youth, there’s no decant needed here – while two hours of air did show some improvement, it’s already terrific from the start and a showcase of masterful Italian winemaking.
