Depth and power define Vietti’s 2016 Barolo Riserva Villero, with compact black cherry and dark plum layered over licorice, leather, warm spice and a subtle ferrous, earthy undertone. The palate is full-bodied and tightly coiled yet remarkably polished, with long, precise tannins and an almost seamless flow that promises superb complexity as it evolves in bottle. A serious, ageworthy Villero that captures the clarity and structure of the great 2016 Barolo vintage.

Vietti’s Barolo Riserva “Villero” is a single‑vineyard Barolo from the southwest‑facing Villero cru in Castiglione Falletto, made 100% from mature Nebbiolo vines and matured roughly 30 months in large oak casks; it’s notable for concentrated, precise fruit (red and black cherry, plum) framed by underbrush, tar and leather notes, firm yet polished tannins and a long, ageworthy finish that rewards extended cellaring.
