Gianfranco Bovio Barolo DOCG Piedmont, Italy 2018 Champagne Rodez Savory dried herbs and anise-likeThe Bovio 2018 Barolo (with fruit from La Morra and Castiglione Falletto) delivers a very bright and lifted bouquet with cassis, wild fruit and hints of dried apricot or apple skin. I love the intensity and inner drive of this classic Barolo. The wine offers good freshness and silky tannins over a mid weight approach. This wine is also quite immediate and ready to drink in the near or medium term. 92 Pts Monica Larner, Robert Parker
