Sordo Barolo Perno – 750ML
90+ Rated

This charming vineyard on a hill sloping down from Castiglione Falletto to the road to Alba. The vineyard is best known as the Sorito della Sera because of its excellent exposure with many hours of sun-facing.

Tasting Notes

A wine with a fairly marked and bright color and tonality. Stable over time. Bouquet always very rich, intense and lingering. Sensations of great vinosity trade-off with notes of ripe fruit, hardwood, spices and licorice. Great inner-mouth warmth; acidity and tannicity always stand out but tend towards sweet. Very long, lingering aromatic finish. It is a wine with great ageing prospects.

Serving Suggestion

Excellent with roasts, game.

Wine Spectator

94 Points // Complex and harmonious, this red features cherry, plum, licorice, leather, freshly mowed grass and mineral flavors. Backed by vibrant acidity and assertive tannins, yet there is plenty of ripe fruit to balance. Fine length. Best from 2024.

James Suckling

92 Points // Spicy red-fruit aromas and flavors here with some attractive fresh-licorice and aniseed notes. Medium-to full-bodied with a tight tannin framework and a flavorful, savory finish. Very tasty now, but needs a year or two to mellow. Drink from 2023.
