2018 Luciano Sandrone Barolo Vite Talin

The 2018 Luciano Sandrone Barolo Vite Talin is a monumental and deeply profound Barolo from one of Piemonte’s most revered producers, sourced from a rare massale-selection Nebbiolo vine discovered within the Cannubi Boschis vineyard. Produced only in exceptional vintages and in tiny quantities, the wine represents the most powerful and concentrated expression in the Sandrone portfolio while retaining extraordinary elegance and precision. The nose reveals black cherry, blood orange and dried rose layered alongside graphite, tobacco, exotic spice and earthy mineral notes, delivering immense depth and complexity.

On the palate, it is full-bodied with finely structured tannins, vibrant natural acidity and remarkable concentration of dark red berry fruit. Layers of cherry, plum and savoury spice are balanced by mineral tension and profound earthy depth, finishing exceptionally long, powerful and impeccably detailed with extraordinary ageing potential.

Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2018 Luciano Sandrone Barolo Vite Talin is a world-class Barolo - powerful, complex and breathtakingly refined with immense structure and longevity. Perfect with truffle dishes, braised beef, roast game, rich mushroom dishes or aged hard cheeses. Enjoy now with extended decanting or cellar gracefully through 2065+.
