Boasso Barolo 'Gabutti' 2016
- In stock, ready to ship
This is a complex Barolo from grapes grown on a steeply sloping, south-east facing vineyard. One of the most extraordinary value Barolo's found in the entire region, this red shows attractive notes of fruit, flowers, and spice on the nose before revealing an intense and ripe palate.
17/20 - Serralunga d'Alba. Tasted blind. Mid to deep ruby. Impressive, minerally nose of great depth and with a hint of old leather. Great palate of succulent cherry framed by grainy tannins. Still a little raw and needs the polish of age. - Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com
93/100 - Aromas of blackberries, cherries and dried strawberries with hints of chocolate and tile. Full-bodied, yet balanced and fine-tannined. Beautiful flavors at the end. Best after 2022. - James Suckling
The nose presents the classic bouquet of ripe red fruit accompanied by rennet apples and quinces. Notes of dried fruit to complete the picture
In the mouth it is classically tannic, with good roundness in the sip which also reveals a youthful and exuberant backbone. Good freshness and persistence.
Pair with aged cheeses or any red meat dish you desire.
This is a wine that embodies the richness and complexity of Nebbiolo, grown in one of the most prestigious crus of the Barolo denomination. The Boasso winery - a small but high quality winery located in the heart of the Langhe - is passionately dedicated to the production of wines that faithfully express the terroir and tradition of Piedmont.
The Gabutti vineyard is located in the municipality of Serralunga d'Alba, known for its soils rich in calcareous marl and clay, which give the wines structure and longevity. The Barolos produced in this area are appreciated for their intensity, depth and aging capacity, qualities that Boasso's Barolo Gabutti expresses with excellence.
