Luigi Baudana Barolo Baudana 2018 Bottle size: 750ml
Italy, Piedmont
R1,350
‘Rich, exuding cherry, raspberry, plum and floral notes, with iron, tobacco and tar accents lending complexity. Shows terrific balance and depth, with a tightly wound structure that bodes well for future development.’ – Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 94/100
‘Ripe, musty fruit on the nose and palate. Medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins and good drive on the finish.’ – James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, 92/100
‘The Luigi Baudana 2018 Barolo Baudana is a full and generous wine, somewhat surprisingly so considering the understated personality of this vintage. That volume makes this bottle stand out in a crowd of 2018 releases. Dark cherry, plum, spice, rust and crushed flowers make for a soft and readily accessible wine. This Barolo is oak fermented and aged in large Slavonian oak casks. 2023-2038’ – Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, 92/100
