The Poderi Luigi Einaudi 2021 Barolo Villero (with fruit from Castiglione Falletto) has an ashy or mineral layer that follows to blackcurrant and dried cherry. That elegant mineral note is what distinguishes this extremely vertical, razor-sharp Nebbiolo. Medium-plus texture follows through with good power on the palate thanks to the precision and firmness of the tannins.
["Taking things to the next level, the 2021 Barolo Villero also shows a bright red hue, with a touch more pigment than the Monvigliero, and reveals more intensity on the nose, with notes of sweet cedar, wild raspberries, lifted anise, and dried apricot. The palate is fantastic, with an even, detailed structure and medium body, and it offers lovely clarity in its bright red fruit, well-defined, ripe tannins, refreshing, even acidity, and a gracefully long, even finish. This gorgeous wine is truly a pleasure to taste now, and it will have the bones to improve and last over the coming two decades."]
