Varietal

Nebbiolo

The Nebbiolo grape varietal is widely understood to be the fruit responsible for Italy's finest aged wines. However, its popularity and reliability as a grape which gives out outstanding flavors and aromas has led it to be planted in many countries around the world, with much success. These purple grapes are distinguishable by the fact that they take on a milky dust as they begin to reach maturity, leading many to claim that this is the reason for their unusual name, which means 'fog' in Italian. Nebbiolo grapes produce wines which have a wide range of beautiful and fascinating flavors, the most common of which are rich, dark and complex, such as violet, truffle, tobacco and prunes. They are generally aged for many years to balance out their characteristics, as their natural tannin levels tend to be very high.

Country

Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.

Region

Piedmont

Situated in the north-western part of Italy, the region of Piedmont is known worldwide and is highly respected for the quality of the wines produced there. Many of the most successful sub-regions in Piedmont produce many of the world's finest red wines, such as those made from the excellent Nebbiolo grape varietal in areas such as Barolo and Barbaresco. However, the historic wineries which typify this region use a relatively wide variety of grapes, including Dolcetto and Barbera for their red wines, which are typically aged and have a delightful velvety character. Piedmont isn't all about beautifully complex red wines, though, as it is also famed for high quality, elegant sparkling wines, notably the Asti wines made with the white Moscato grape. The region benefits from a range of terroirs which are often well expressed in the sparkling wines, and a wonderfully consistent climate ideal for vineyard cultivation.

Appellation

Barolo

Barolo’s star grape is Nebbiolo, a finicky yet expressive variety that reaches its zenith this unique terroir. The region’s distinct microclimates and soils contribute to Nebbiolo’s complexity, resulting in wines with robust tannins, high acidity, and exceptional aging potential. Barolo wines, often referred to as “the king of wines,” are characterized by their deep garnet hue and complex bouquet, offering aromas of roses, tar, truffles, and red fruit. The aging process is significant, requiring at least 38 months, with a minimum of 18 months spent in wooden casks. This meticulous craftsmanship results in wines that evolve beautifully over time, displaying a harmonious balance of power and finesse. For wine enthusiasts, exploring Barolo provides a captivating journey into the rich tapestry of Italian winemaking, showcasing the profound marriage of tradition, terroir, and Nebbiolo’s distinctive expression.

Wine Spectator

Sweet cherry, berry, floral, mineral and tobacco flavors signal this sleek, elegant and structured Barolo, with vibrant acidity keeping it focused through the long finish. Shows superb balance and length, with a lingering aftertaste of bright red fruit. Best from 2027 through 2043. 450 cases made.

Wine Advocate

The Boroli 2019 Barolo Villero opens to mid-weight concentration with enough garnet shine to remind you of how pretty Nebbiolo can look in in the glass, especially when young. Villero reveals savory aromas of dark fruit, plum, spice, earth and leather. It draws its fruit from Castiglione Falletto and you can expect tighter structure for steady cellar aging as a result. Only 4,380 bottles will hit the market this fall.

This has a citrusy and red-fruited nose with dried flowers and bark. Medium- to full-bodied with firm tannins, that are slightly chewy. Yet it is juicy and bright with fresh cherry and blood orange undertones. Polished finish. Drink after 2027.

DC 94pts

Decanter

With a south/southwest exposure, the portion of Villero managed by Boroli is just below the estate. The 2019 is earthy and restrained, austere on the nose as well as on the palate. Dill, tar, rhubarb and bergamot scents lead to a dense and velvety yet firm attack, with refreshing acidity. A powerful wine not without grace thanks to its clean, polished finish.

WE 93pts

Wine Enthusiast

The enticing Barolo reveals dark fruit aromas of plum and blueberry, intertwined with baking spices, dried herbs and sweet tobacco. The plump palate showcases a deep core of mixed red and black fruits, accompanied by oak notes and fine tannins that contribute to a savory and mouthwatering finish. Best enjoyed from 2026–2045.

Jeb Dunnuck

A luxuriously styled expression of Villero, the 2019 Barolo Villero is a deep ruby into garnet and has ripe aromas of cedar, kirsch, polished leather, and balsamic. Medium to full-bodied, with notes of ripe red plum, tobacco, and turned earth, it is approachable, with ripe tannins and a rounded feel. The fruit is fresh at this stage but feels as if it may mature a touch earlier than some styles of Barolo in 2019. Drink 2023-2030.

Winery Notes

Clear bright ruby colour with very light garnet red reflections; intense and persistent aroma of red fruit with notes of plum and cherry. A pleasant aroma of wood is noticeable after the fruity aroma, anticipating the full taste of a great wine suitable for long lasting life. A succulent, rich, full-bodied and pleasant taste emerges after the woody one, with the presence of slightly ripe red fruit.
