Low stock: 7 left
The 2020 Barolo is a blend of fruit from sources in Castiglione Falletto, Barolo, Serralunga and Monforte. It's a gorgeous, complex wine redolent of cedar, pipe tobacco, dried herbs, menthol and earthy undertones. The 2020 is deep, expressive and quite open, especially in its aromatics. It's a classy, elegant Barolo through and through. "I am going to be sixty next year. "I am not making wines that need to be cellared for a long time before being ready," proprietor Alan Manley told me.

Margherita Otto, Monforte d'Alba
Alan Manley, a New York native, became enamored with the Piemonte region of Italy on his first visit. After decades working with renowned producers like Maria Teresa Mascarello and Luciano Sandrone, he launched his own winery, Azienda Agricola Margherita Otto, by leasing exceptional vineyards. With meticulous attention to detail, Manley produces only two wines: a Barolo Classico and a Langhe Nebbiolo. He sells the fruit from his Barbaresco vineyards to focus on his Barolo, with his 2020 vintage showcasing a blend from four unique vineyard sites across three Barolo communes, each adding distinct character to this elegant wine.
