Barolo Riserva Vietti 2015 is a 100% Nebbiolo wine from the Piedmont region. This release represents a meticulous selection of grapes from several distinguished vineyard sites. Established in the late 19th century, Vietti is notable for its early adoption of single-vineyard bottlings, significantly influencing Barolo production. The 2015 vintage features a balanced structure with pronounced acidity, delivering layers of red and dark fruit, earthy undertones and subtle balsamic hints. This wine is built for longevity, promising further evolution in the bottle.

Here`s an exciting new submission from Vietti that takes us to a whole other level (and evolutionary timeframe). A very late release that is held back at the winery, the 2015 Barolo Riserva sources its fruit solely from Castiglione Falletto. In fact, it represents a special section of the best sites that go into the Barolo Castiglione. Some of that fruit was so impressive, I am told, the decision was made to age it longer (with up to 30 months in large oak casks) and give it a Riserva designation. Specifically, the grapes come primarily from Scarrone and Bric del Fiasc. Production is 5,000 bottles. The wine reveals gorgeous elegance, with evolved fruit flavors and melting tannins. The beauty is that you can drink this wine the same day you buy it. - Monica Larner

The 2015 Barolo Riserva is a new wine from Vietti conceived as a blend that changes every year, a sort of Riserva of the Castiglione, in that it is a Barolo made from the many lots Vietti has at their disposal. Exotic red fruit, blood orange, spice, leather and cedar are some of the aromas and flavors that emerge from the glass. The 2015 shows the aromatic complexity of a wine that has been in bottle for a few years, naturally it does not offer the singularity of the vineyard designates. I won't be surprised if this bottling improves in future vintages as the direction becomes even more clearly defined. Antonio Galloni10th January 2023
