Wine rated (2021 guide) 93/100

About the wine:

Villero is a vast, southwest-facing vineyard with numerous owners. Boroli’s version is aged partly in new barrels. The nose is complex, with aromas of damp leaves, truffles, raspberries, and dried herbs. It’s not a blockbuster, but a graceful and polished wine with fine tannins and sufficient acidity. Light on its feet, yet showing substance and complexity, it has a guaranteed long finish of red fruit. It’s a striking contrast to the more austere Brunella, but this Villero is generally an excellent wine. 2021–2032

Wine rated (2018 guide) 92/100 (Excellent wine)

About the wine:

The 2013 Barolo Villero is a firm and slightly austere wine, with plenty of black fruit, licorice, crushed minerals, and spices embedded deep within its structure. The style is direct and traditional, with a dry but lingering finish. 2018–2030

About the wine:

Remarkable complexity and richness, with aromas and flavors of dried strawberries and spices. Full-bodied, layered, and refined, with vibrancy and a wonderful mouthfeel. A subtle hint of vanilla in the background. Ready to drink or worth cellaring.
