Enzo Boglietti Barolo Arione 2004



Enzo Boglietti Barolo Arione 2004 stands apart. A powerful, sinewy wine, it captures the essence of this Serralunga vineyard in its autumn leaves, iron, licorice, tar and dark fruit. There is plenty of richness and depth as well, but the wine possesses an additional level of brute force and thrust. This Barolo is a beautifully expressive wine loaded with personality. As is the case with Boglietti’s other Barolos in this vintage, the Arione develops nicely in the glass. Ideally this Italian red can use a few years of cellaring.
