Why Mark chose this
The Barolo Le Vigne encapsulates the characteristics of each single one of its vineyards – unique in their diversity. The first sites to be united, thanks to the art of blending, were Vignane in Barolo and Merli in Novello. To join the bond in 2010 was Baudana in Serralunga d’Alba, and one year later Villero in Castiglione Falletto. In 2019 the Le Vigne project was completed by the addition of Le Coste di Monforte in Monforte d’Alba. Different in position, altitude, orientation, genetic heritage and soil composition, the vineyards that come together in Barolo Le Vigne through the art of blending are given one common voice, which narrates of the whole Barolo territory.

Tasting Notes
98 Sandrone’s 2013 Barolo Le Vigne is a real stunner. Powerful, ample and deep, the 2013 exudes class from start to finish. The addition of Serralunga fruit in the blend has added depth and structure in all of the wine’s dimensions. Dark red cherry, plum, mint, rose petal, tar and licorice build into the huge, voluptuous finish. Readers who can find the 2013 should not hesitate, as it is outrageously beautiful and also one of the clear wines of the vintage. Vineyard sites are Baudana, Villero, Vignane and Merli.
