Other Reviews....
This wine aspires to a greater Serralunga d'Alba identity, as opposed to a specific single cru (Baudana or Cerretta) distinction. This makes the 2014 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba more accessible and immediate in approach. The wine is also distinguished by the softness of the cool 2014 vintage that is matched nicely against the power and strength of the Serralunga d'Alba fruit. Ultimately, these contrasting forces find harmony here. The bouquet is stitched together with pleasing wild cherry, spice and licorice aromas.

Baudana's 2014 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba is a fabulous entry-level bottling. Muscular Serralunga tannins enshroud a core of intense dark red fruit. The straight Barolo is a blend of fruit from the Baudana and Cerretta vineyards, and yet the wine has a level of aromatic brightness and lift that isn't found in either of the vineyard designates. Everything about the 2014 is compelling.
