The Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba is the most accessible of Luigi Baudana's three Baroli. Precise fruit with wonderful tones of black cherry, plum and cassis. The intensity of the characteristic Nebbiolo liquorice and cola takes a back seat in this wine as the dark fruit is the leading force. This vintage has the acidity and natural structure to carry the wine for 10 years or more. And so it is not surprising that this Barolo still needs a few years to develop its full class and finesse.

"The 2021 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba is superb. Creamy and resonant in the glass, with gorgeous mid-palate depth, the 2021 is a terrific wine in its peer group. Rose petal, incense, blood orange, dried herbs and cedar confer notable complexity. This is a gorgeous wine in every way. The Baudana Serralunga Barolo is one of so many wines in Piedmont that overachieves." Vinous

"The Luigi Baudana 2021 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba shows rich fruit delivered as cooked cherry with background tones of cinnamon, red rose and ferrous earth. The tannins are sweet but also firm, and you get plenty of streamlined fruit on the close." Wine Advocate

"This wine shows aromas of flowers, pressed roses, dried cherries, red currants and balsamic. Medium-bodied, it shows firm, dusty tannins with prominent freshness and a tight aftertaste." James Suckling
