Raspberry, cherry, rose and mint aromas and flavors highlight this elegant red. Harmonious and bright, with a silky feel and a light dusting of powdery tannins on the lingering aftertaste. Best from 2026 through 2040. 5,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.

Layers of pine, balsamic, kirsch, and menthol emerge from the 2019 Barolo Tortoniano, balanced nicely with the floral perfume of pressed roses. A medium-bodied and well-structured red, it has ripe tannins, a fresh spine of acidity, and lingering notes of leather and fresh soil. It is charming now, but it certainly has the structure to drink well over the next 8-10 years.

The 2019 Barolo Tortoniano is a fine entry-level offering from Chiarlo. Sweet dried cherry, tobacco, cedar, dried flowers, mint and orange peel are nicely lifted on this mid-weight Barolo. Open in its flavors, with a good deal of complexity, the 2019 comes across as a wine to drink over the next handful of years, but not more.
