Cordero di Montezemolo Barolo Monfalletto 2020 | Ewineasia.com

Montezemelo is from the west side of the region in La Morra, known for the highest altitude in the region and more clay soils that give a touch more plushness in style of wine, showcasing more fruit, but make no mistake there is plenty of tannin. La Morra is the epitome of the velvet glove with an iron fist. Monfalletto hails from a few vineyards around La Morra.

The 2020 Barolo Monfalletto is a pretty serious wine. Dark and ample, with big tannins, the 2020 is a rich, dense Monfalletto that is going to need a number of years to come into its own. This is an especially dense, potent La Morra Barolo built on texture. Red fruit, blood orange, spice and new leather underscore this very rich wine.
