2010  Castello di Verduno Barolo Riserva Monvigliero

92+ JG The 2010 Monvigliero Riserva from the Castello di Verduno is an absolutely superb wine in the making, offering up a deep and pure bouquet of black cherries, bonfire, spit-roasted gamebird, superb soil tones, licorice and a nice touch of fresh oregano in the upper register. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and nicely structured, with a sappy core, fine focus and grip, tangy acids and a long, ripely tannic and nascently complex finish. Another outstanding example of this exceptional terroir. 2023-2055+.

In 1968 Pino Taliano founded Taliano Guiseppe; he acquired vineyards throughout the Piedmont; his desire was to create a diverse array of holdings that could highlight the different soils, climatic conditions and traditional varietals of the Piedmont - Nebbiolo planted on the slopes of Barbaresco and Barolo on calcareous clay, Arneis on the sandy soils of Roero, Barbera and Moscato in the warmer more mild climate of Asti, and Dolcetto outside of Alba. In 1994, Pino's son Luciano took over the reigns and changed the name of the family business to Azienda Agricole of Montaribaldi. The name is an homage to the agricultural roots of the Taliano family, Azienda Agricola translates as, "agricultural business." The name Montaribaldi refers to the ancient Roman road that linked the winery to the different vineyards throughout the Piedmont, thus creating a philosophical and geographical umbrella that tied Luciano's forward looking domaine to the rich viticultural history of the region.
