Cordero di Montezemolo Barolo Monfalletto DOCG 2020

750ml

SGD 137.00

95 points, James Suckling

Tea leaves, slate, wild berry fruit, violets and some tar on the nose. It’s firm yet silky on the palate, medium-bodied, with super fine tannins and a cool minerality to it. Lots of tension and energy, if a little tight for now. From organically grown grapes. Try from 2028.

Tasting Profile

  • Body: Full-bodied
  • Tannins:Firm and structured, with fine-grained tannins that provide a noticeable grip.
  • Acidity: Vibrant and well-integrated, providing a refreshing counterpoint to the richness of the wine.
  • Sweetness: Dry

Tasting Notes: The wine opens with aromas of macerated ripe berries, complemented by dried rosebuds and sweet spices that develop with more time in the glass. Lush layers of black cherry that evolve into darker hued fruits with savory spice, black tea and hints of wild mushrooms all swell to a finish that leads to a full-bodied, sumptuous character that is ready to drink but will also go the distance.

Discover the Winery: Cordero di Montezemolo

The fabulous medieval estate of Monfalletto in Italy’s Piedmont wine region, where postcard-perfect rows of vineyards rise and fall over the gently rolling hills, is the birthplace of the expressive and characterful Cordero di Montezemolo wines. The legacy of the aristocratic Falletti family, who made wine here for six centuries, became a commercial winery in the 1940s under Paolo Cordero di Montezemolo’s guidance, who began making a name for himself with the production of top Barolos and Barberas. The family’s history and exclusive wines can be traced much further back. The Falletti family first acquired this land in 1340 and held on to it until 1941, when Countess Luigia Falletti di Rodello died without children. Her nephew, Paolo Cordero di Montezemolo, inherited the land, marking the start of a new, more outward-looking, modern era for the estate; previously, the wine had been made to give workers a part of their salary. These days, Paolo’s sons Giovanni and Enrico run the winery and sell their wines worldwide. The historic Monfalletto estate, in the Annunziata district near the darling village of La Morra, comprises 28 hectares where Nebbiolo, Dolcetto, Barbera, and Arneis are grown. This property appears on land registers dating to the Middle Ages, is striped with perfectly laid-out rows of vines, and features an ancient farmhouse carefully restored. At its heart is the iconic Cedar of Lebanon, a tree atop Monfalletto Hill standing guard over the vineyards. Planted in 1856 by Costanzo Falletti di Rodello and his bride Eulalia Della Chiesa di Cervignasco to mark their wedding day, it’s an enduring symbol of their love for the land.
