Guido Porro Barolo Vigna Gianetto 2021
92 pts Vinous
Drinking Window 2025 - 2031
The 2021 Barolo Giannetto is laced with macerated cherry, blood orange, spice, cedar and pipe tobacco. Fleshy and quite deep, with terrific resonance, the 2021 has much to recommend it. This is one of the more overt Porro Barolos I can remember tasting of late. Readers will have a hard time keeping their hands off this jewel of a wine. - By Antonio Galloni on September 2025
