Rose petals, dried cedar, hazelnuts and tobacco. Very structured and powerful, but with enough generous fruit not to be hard nor intrusive. Full-bodied and long on the finish. Drink from 2021.

From five different vineyards within four villages (Barolo, Grinzane, Monforte and Novello), Le Cinque Vigne perfectly represents the tradition in Barolo of focussing on blends rather than single crus. Grinzane-Cavour dominates in this wine, as suggested by the more ready to drink, velvety style. But you shouldn't really consider it the entry level Barolo from Damilano because of its layered complexity, ranging from wild strawberry to cacao beans underlined by liquorice and tar notes, with full body and good concentration.

Drinking Window 2019 - 2029

The 2015 Barolo Lecinquevigne (with 60,000 bottles produced) shows ripe fruit with notes of raspberry and dark cherry. There is that moment of ripeness where the wine suddenly pulls itself together to offer more richness and velvety saturation at the back. This is a solid, easy-drinking expression with generous and round contours. This wine is ready to drink straight out of the gate, with a grilled steak.

This rich red delivers ripe plum, cherry, licorice and leather aromas and flavors. The tannins are present and refined. Balanced and long overall. Best from 2021 through 2037. 5,500 cases made, 2,700 cases imported. — BS
