Luciano Sandrone Barolo Le Vigne 2005 Barolo Piedmont 1500ml/Btl 6/case

Description

Antonio Galloni: The 2005 Barolo Le Vigne opens with fresh,
high-toned aromas that meld into a core of perfumed red fruits.
There is notable vibrancy to the fruit, and although the 2005 is a
relatively small-scaled vintage for this wine, the balance is
exceptional. The Le Vigne has more than enough fruit to follow
through all the way to the close, where notes of raspberry jam
offer a final burst of intensity. Le Vigne is made from a number of
parcels in Vignane (Barolo), Conterni and Ceretta (Monforte) and
Merli (Novello). In 2005 the harvest took place in the first two
weeks of October. The wines were vinified separately, then racked
into 500-liter barrels. The final blend was assembled in the summer
of 2006. Every year I taste through the various parcels separately
and every year I am amazed by the way the final blend transcends
the quality of the individual wines. Simply put, Le Vigne is a gem
of a wine from Luciano Sandrone.
