Giovanni Rosso 2017 Barolo La Serra

Description

94 Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
From another prized vineyard site in Serralunga d’Alba, the Giovanni Rosso 2017 Barolo Serra is balanced and bright, with dark cherry fruit, crème de cassis, baked clay and rusty mineral. Those more ferrous aromas are followed by a pretty hint of blue flower or dried lavender. This is a nicely textured, mid to full-weight Barolo to hold in your cellar.

94 Vinous
The 21017 Barolo Serra is bright, nervy and full of energy. Readers will find a Serralunga Barolo built more on persistence than heft, not a bad thing for a village where the wines can be quite big. Chalk, white pepper, orange zest and spice give the Serra its characteristic brightness.

93 Wine Spectator
This is linear and taut, with a chalky matrix of tannins underneath cherry, strawberry, eucalyptus and tar notes. The tannins gain the upper hand on the finish for now, yet this red is complex and long.
