Tasting notes
The Francesco Rinaldi & Figli 2020 Barolo Brunate is a wine of good sharpness and intensity. It has a broad range of aromas with dark fruit, licorice and dried mint. That herbal character is something I often recognize in Barolo's Brunate vineyard, which is planted on limestone clay soils. This hot-vintage wine closes with a powerful 15% alcoholic content. I would assign a medium-term drinking window for this accessible Barolo. 10,000 bottles were created.

The 2020 Barolo Brunate is quite the powerhouse. Black cherry, sage, menthol, licorice, plum and mocha build effortlessly with air. A wine of imposing presence and structure, the Brunate has a ton to offer. I admire its dynamic energy and character. It’s the sort of wine that is constantly changing in the glass as it reveals myriad shades of complexity over time.
