Il Poeta Barolo 2020
From a classic, well-structured, 5-star vintage, this is a fine, affordable Barolo. It was made at a 4th-generation family cellar and, now four years old, has silky, firm tannins supporting the cherry, plum, flower and spice notes. Beautiful balance.

The Story Behind the Bottle
Grape grower Natale Seghesio is known as 'il Poeta' ('the Poet') to his friends. Not only for his lyrical compositions (featured on the label), but also for the intensely flavoured produce of his vines, growing in the premium Piedmont hills. Talented winemaker Paolo Sartirano snaps up Natale's grapes every year, taking them to his family's cellar. Founded in 1871, this cellar is now 150 years old and in the hands of the fourth generation. Paolo has crafted Il Poeta to be a truly poetical expression of the finest Nebbiolo. Three years ageing in large barrels ensures the fruit marries perfectly with the subtle oak. Deeply flavoured and complex, the wine is best opened a few hours early and decanted. Or age. Serve with hearty dishes.
