2017 Paolo Manzone 'Serralunga d'Alba' Barolo Piedmont

Winemaker Notes: Paolo Manzone is one of the leading producers of Barolo. Prior to purchasing and renovating his property in Serralunga, Paolo Manzone spent many years as a highly respected wine consultant. The focus now is on the underrated cru Meriame where the family of Paolo's wife Luisella have had vineyards for generations but had previously sold the fruit until Paolo decided to release wines under the family name. Today, this collaboration has raised the profile of the Meriame cru, and Paolo's wines have won widespread recognition. His wines are traditional in style; structured and complex.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM

Wine Enthusiast - "Black-skinned berry, mocha and underbrush aromas emerge from the glass. The firm, balanced palate offers Marasca cherry, orange zest and black pepper alongside fine-grained tannins. Drink 2023–2029."
