BAROLO Barale Fratelli 2016

The 2016 Barolo Vendemmia is a very pretty wine with which to explore the vintage. Airy and weightless in feel, the 2016 is a bit nervous today. Crushed flowers, white pepper, dried cherry and mint are all very nicely lifted. The 2016 will be terrific once the tannins soften a bit. It is very nicely done.

VOLNAY Domaine Fernand & Laurent Pillot 2021

(one-third of this is from the 1er vineyards of Les Brouillards and Roncerets plus the villages portion of Brouillards and Grands Champs). A cool, pure and airy nose blends together mostly red pinot fruit and discreet earth nuances with those of menthol and discreet wood wisps. There is both better refinement and an appealing texture to the well-defined and lingering finish that turns mildly rustic as the finish sits on the palate.
