I should note that Vietti plans to release a 2006 Barolo Riserva Villero

Vinified with 70% whole bunches of Grenache Noir

This will be just great on release and should deliver the goods for at least decade or longer

Drink now through 2021

An outstanding wine

Georges Noellat (Maxime Cheurlin), Beaune Tuvilains other_regions I should note that ViettiMild reduction pushes the fruit to the background yet it does seem reasonably ripe. There is a lovely sense of freshness and punch to the attractively textured medium bodied flavors that terminate in a driving and firm if mildly rustic finish. This focused effort will need a few years to soften at least some of the tannic structure. (89 91) 2025+
