Luigi Baudana Barolo Baudana 2020

2020 Barolo Baudana 93VM
Luigi Baudana
Barolo, Piemonte

93 pts Vinous (Galloni)
The 2020 Barolo Baudana opens with a burst of plump, juicy, red-toned fruit. Bright acids and persistent tannins are a reminder we’re in Serralunga. The 2020 is going to need a few years to come together, but it is a relatively accessible wine for this part of the appellation. The purity of the fruit here is lovely. Pretty floral and spice overtones lift the finish effortlessly. - By Antonio Galloni on November 2023
