Auction Base – Barrique nr. 11

Galloni’s Opinion

With barrel number eleven we are still on the south-facing side of the Vigna Gustava vineyard. This is a wine whose defining qualities are delicacy and elegance. It’s a composed, extraordinarily understated Barolo that speaks in soft tones, without the exuberance and brashness of some of the other wines from the 2025 vintage, yet without ever losing its structural tension. On the contrary, this wine is all about balance and the geometric symmetry of its components. Aromatics, acidity, tannin and fruit are in perfect accord, so finely woven together that they create a harmonious, unified impression, rather than appearing as separate elements. The balance here is exquisite, to say the least.
