A release of 4,981 bottles, the Vietti 2017 Barolo Brunate is beautifully rich and fleshed out, with balanced fruit weight and inner structure. The bouquet reveals tart cherry and cassis, but the Brunate also shows a more delicate side, with crushed flowers, dried violet and polished stone. The power of this cru creeps up on the palate, where you feel the tightness of its fiber and tannins. Following that delicate aromatic preface, this Barolo ultimately delivers a strong, cellar-worthy performance.
A bright ruby red with a fine garnet shimmer. An exciting and complex bouquet with notes of cardamom, a hint of leather, and plenty of plum and raspberry. Full-bodied and gripping tannins dominate on the palate, with fine raspberry fruit, unfortunately a little brittle in the finale.
