Strong reduction knocks down the nose

Monvigliero is fifth most identified vineyard designate in Barolo after Cannubi

it's full-bodied

Chiara Boschis (Pira), Barolo Cannubi Vintage:2004 serious and impressively persistent finishDeep, bright ruby red. Sweet, spicy aromas of redcurrant and plum. Still rather closed in the mouth following the recent bottling, but the plummy fruit and spicy wood appear to be nicely integrated, with the result that the wine is not at all overly oaky. Rather silky texture. Finishes with big, ripe tannins that spread out to coat the palate. Stephen Tanzer
