The 2009 Batistot Barolo Riserva is impressive for its beautifully polished character and remarkable structure. Bottled unfiltered, this shows a lovely old-world charm as it begins to opens with ripe cherries and cassis bud, followed by fresh mushroom, earth, floral and wet stones, all slowly take shape. On the palate this is medium to full bodied with wonderful overall balance and depth. The finish is long with notes of berries and spices lingering. An outstanding, age worthy Barolo from Cristiano Veglio which should continue to thrive for years to come. (Best 2019-2030) - June, 2017 (JD)
