Dark-toned and powerful, Vietti’s 2021 Barolo Brunate layers brooding black cherry and plum fruit with lifted notes of mint, sweet spice and dried herbs, all wrapped in a dense, chalky tannin frame. The palate is full and commanding yet finely detailed, with a cool, long, mint-tinged finish that promises even greater complexity as it gains bottle age. A profound, deeply serious Brunate that still manages to feel vibrant and alive.

Vietti’s Barolo Brunate is a single‑cru Nebbiolo from the historic Brunate exposures in La Morra (limestone‑ and clay‑rich Marne soils at ~300–400m), crafted to show the site’s floral lift and silky texture; vinified with extended maceration and matured largely in large oak (with some barriques) for about 30 months, it offers explosive aromas of violet, plum and cedar with citrus and spice accents, rounded, velvety tannins, and a long licorice‑tinged finish.
