Barolo 2021 is a ripe, full-bodied wine in a showy package. The wine announces itself from the perfume: ripe and generous, lots of red fruits and floral aspects, hints of mineral and liquorice. It has a long finish, ripe and rich, with good acidity and mature tannins that feel big but silky. Alan Manley The 2021 Barolo is gorgeous. Orange peel, cinnamon, kirsch, new leather and spice are all beautifully delineated. As always, proprietor Alan Manley strives to make a classically styled yet open-knit Barolo that can be enjoyed on release. In the 2021, that manifests more in the aromatics than in the tannins, but it was bottled just two months before this tasting, so I suspect it is still under a bit of bottle shock. The Margherita Otto Barolo is a blend from several sites. In 2021, it saw 45 days on the skins, with submerged cap maceration, followed by 30 months in cask. Antonio Galloni, Vinous 93 Points
