Perhaps the most emblematic of the Barolo region, the Vietti label is renowned worldwide for incredible quantity and delicious, approachable and age-worthy wines. An estate with winemaking roots more than 150 years ago, Vietti's holdings are enviable with nearly every top cru represented over their 75 hectares of vineyards.

Vietti

Carlo Vietti began the Vietti family winemaking journey in 1873, though it was in the mid-20th century with Alfredo Currado's entrance to the family through marriage that the winery began to truly set themselves apart with single-cru bottlings and decorative, artistic labels.

Though difficult to believe, Barolo only became a DOC in 1960; in 1961, Vietti released the Rocche di Castiglione cru for the first time, one of the very first single-cru labels ever released from Barolo. Today under new direction, the Vietti label is widely-known as one of impeccable quality from their approachable Barbera and Langhe labels to their incredibly age-worthy Barolos, be it the blend of crus in Castiglione or the famed Barolo Villero Riserva, routinely one of Piedmont's best wines each vintage.

Vineyard work is done entirely sustainably, with the estate recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Winemaking is done in a largely traditional method, utilizing submerged-cap macerations for all Nebbiolo wines, and extended aging in large oak barrels.

A relatively new departure for Vietti, the 2020 Barolo Monvigliero is soft and delicate with pretty floral aromas, dried iris, powdered spice and a hint of tar or road pavement. The inaugural vintage was 2018. Made with 60% whole-cluster fruit during fermentation, the wine has a moment of tartness, punchy highlights, sweet grenadine and cranberry jelly. It ages in large oak casks for 24 months. Production is 6,754 bottles.

The 2020 Barolo Monvigliero is a very pretty, ethereal wine. Crushed flowers, mint, bright, red-toned fruit, dried herbs and spice are nicely lifted. This pretty, nuanced Barolo is very classy, but also on the lighter side. The 2020 is beguiling, but also a bit ethereal—this fruit may have been picked too early.
