2020 Barolo, Commune di Serralunga d'Alba, Luigi Baudana, Piedmont, Italy

Description

The already miniscule quantity (normally 300 bottles) is down by 30% this year, so even more of a rarity than usual. The blend is from the Costabella, Baudana and Cerretta vineyards, harvested on 9th October and kept on skins for 65 days, then in tini for two years. The bouquet is intense with dried fruit, spice and candy, with a top note of sweetness for the vintage but the attack and structure on the palate is strong and very Serralunga.

About this wine

Nebbiolo

Nebbiolo is the grape behind the Barolo and Barbaresco wines and is hardly ever seen outside the confines of Piedmont. It takes its name from "nebbia" which is Italian for fog, a frequent phenomenon in the region.

Luigi Baudana

With only 2.6 hectares of vineyards, Luigi Baudana is one of the smallest cantinas in Serralunga d’Alba, and has been managed by GD Vajra since 2009. Production is still in the tiny Baudana winery – quite literally in the family garage. The wines carry Luigi Baudana’s fierce Serralunga character, but have benefited from Vajra’s influence, which emphasises classical structures, vivid fruity purity, passion and authenticity. While easy to miss, the quality of these ensures they are the stars of the future. Quantities are tiny, so please contact your account manager to register interest.
