Luciano Sandrone Barolo Le Vigne 2008 Barolo Piedmont 750ml/Btl 6/case

Description

Antonio Galloni: Sandrone's 2008 Barolo Le Vigne is a wine of
breathtaking textural finesse and elegance. Nothing really stands
out, so phenomenal is the wine's balance and sense of harmony. This
is the kind of wine that is easy to overlook because it doesn't ask
for attention and isn't showy. Instead, everything is simply in the
right place. The finest, most silky of tannins support a core of
sweet red berries, flowers, mint and spices, all of which are woven
together with total refinement. The eternal, nuanced finish bodes
very well for the future. This is a dazzling effort from Luciano
and Luca Sandrone. Le Vigne is made from parcels in Vignane,
Ceretta, Conterni and Merli. In 2008 there is a little less Vignane
as part of the vineyard was hit by hail. There is little question
that the blending of fruit from several sites was a huge advantage
in 2008.
