Barolo Le Coste di Monforte

Full

Cork

This cheerful Barolo is made from a 30-plus-year-old vineyard at the southern edge of the denomination. The nose is redolent of heady yellow broom on a warm summer's day, backed by smoke-tinged cherry and raspberry. It packs a charge of ripe red fruit; round rather than heavy. While this comes across as a bit naïve, the fresh mint and sweet earth provide depth, and the lively tannins give a lightly astringent grip on the finish. Nevertheless, it is ready to drink and difficult not to like.
