A classically composed and perfect introduction to Altare Nebbiolo from its own vineyards in Barolo, Castiglione Falletto and Serralunga d'Alba. With its modern character (use of barriques), the Elio Altare winery has always been one of those producers whose Barolo wines appear less hard and brittle when young and rarely beg for more than 10 years of further ageing in the bottle.

Deep, dark fruit with a finesse and complexity that only brings the wonderfully fine-grained tannin and power to the palate on the long finish that we love so much in these wines. This immensely well-structured red from the excellent 2021 vintage is already a great pleasure early on and will grow in size, complexity, elegance and finesse as it matures. SUPERIORE.DE

"It has a subtle aroma of red berries, a hint of dark chocolate and rosemary. Its mid-palate weight gives it some girth, while the oak trim and fine-grained tannins give it a tactile texture. A charming hint of dark raspberry floods the finish." Decanter

"The 2021 Barolo is a juicy, open wine that is easy to drink on release, but also has what it takes to age well for several years. Crushed flowers, sweet red fruit, new leather, spice and cedar evolve as this racy, juicy Barolo shows its considerable charms. This is a wine of class that beautifully showcases the finesse of the vintage." Vinous

"The Elio Altare 2021 Barolo offers a classical interpretation of the grape done in the house style that prizes extraction, intensity and sweet fruitiness. You get all of that here, exceptionally well presented in this epic vintage." Wine Advocate
