Davide Rosso's Barolo Serra is bright and vivid in flavour. Lively acids and tannins give it a marvellous, translucent energy. On the palate, this enormously linear and lively Barolo shows orange peel, crushed stones, mint and cinnamon. Powerful and rich with excellent tannin management, suggesting increasing suppleness and elegance with further bottle ageing. SUPERIORE.DE

"The bouquet is spicy with aromas of forest fruits, truffles and flowers; the finely chiselled tannins and acidity in perfect balance, the finish on notes of ripe fruit, spices and leather." Vinum

"Bright, medium-dense ruby-garnet colour. Fragrant nose of preserved peach, pomegranate and raspberry, some smoke in the background. Firm, gripping tannins, underpinned by sweet melting, but still needs to come together." Falstaff

"The 2020 Barolo Serra is a nervy, taut Serralunga Barolo. White pepper, chalk, mint, dried flowers, crushed rocks and orange peel drive through a core of red-toned fruit, adding brightness and tension throughout. Readers who enjoy tense, salivating Barolos will find plenty of those qualities here. Pretty floral overtones brighten the finish nicely." Vinous

"A very pale ruby color is supported by a complex, layered nose with rhubarb, earthy strawberries, red currants, violets and cinnamon. Full of sucrosity on the palate, it shows good concentration, a medium body, refreshing acidity, fine-tuned dusty tannins and a polished finish. Cherry pit and floral aftertaste. A stylish wine with cellaring potential but also ready to drink." James Suckling
