Cascina Fontana Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

$99

One of the great under-the-radar producers in Barolo right now, Mario Fontana is crafting ultra-traditional, firmly structured Baroli that are built for the long haul.  This is both a producer to keep an eye on, and also one to get in on before the word is really out, and this gorgeously focused, structured and floral 2019 Barolo represents a perfect entry point.   Vintage: 2019 Country: Italy Region: Piedmont Sub-Region: Langhe Appellation: Barolo Grape: Nebbiolo Farming: Organic Drink: 2025-2035

The 2019 Barolo is absolutely gorgeous. Bright and lifted, with striking inner perfume, the 2019 is an absolute charmer. Rose petal, blood orange, mint, spice and new leather develop with a bit of time in the glass, adding to the wine's charm and sensuality. The 2019 is delicate and alluring. It's everything Barolo should be, especially at this level. Best of all, the 2019 should be a fabulous value in the world of Barolo. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, January 2024)
