The Beni di Batasiolo 2016 Barolo Brunate offers a hint of ripe fruit with an open-knit or immediately welcoming approach. There is dark currant and cassis, followed by spice, earthy tones and a whisper of black truffle. In addition to that full-spectrum bouquet, this wine delivers solid fruit weight and concentration. The finish is long and driven by silky tannins. This is my favorite wine among these new releases from Beni di Batasiolo. Only 2,500 six-bottle cases were produced.
