Score 93/100 · Drink 2023-2034, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Feb 2021

The 2016 Barolo Sotto Castello di Novello is another attractive, inviting Barolo from Ferruccio Grimaldi. Crushed flowers, mint, cedar and red berry fruit give the 2016 terrific brightness and energy. Spice, new leather and tobacco develop later, adding further shades of nuance. The Sotto Castello shows the more restrained, introverted side of the year.
