{"product_id":"luigi-baudana-barolo-baudana-2021","title":"Luigi Baudana Barolo 'Baudana' 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis exceptional red wine originates from the Barolo DOCG in the Piedmont region of Northern Italy. It is crafted from the historic Baudana cru, a legendary vineyard site in the subregion of Serralunga d'Alba. For over 30 years, Luigi Baudana and his wife Fiorina tended to these vines before entrusting the estate to the Vajra family in 2009. Giuseppe Vajra now manages the property with a philosophy that respects the legacy of the Baudana family, who have inhabited this specific land for so long that their arrival predates local records.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWine Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Luigi Baudana Barolo 'Baudana' presents a bright garnet red hue with ruby reflections. The nose is intensely fragrant, revealing a complex bouquet of dried cherries, blood orange, and raspberries, intertwined with notes of potpourri, cinnamon, and graphite. On the palate, the wine is full bodied and powerful, yet displays a smooth and velvety attack. It features firm, fine grained tannins and a refreshing acidity that provides remarkable tension and energy. The finish is long and precise, marked by a characteristic mineral salty vein and savory notes of eucalyptus and tobacco.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAccolades\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eJames Suckling - 97 points\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eWine Spectator - 96 points\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eJeb Dunnuck - 96 points\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eVinous - 95 points\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert Parker's Wine Advocate - 95 points\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eDecanter - 94 points\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFood Pairing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Barolo is an excellent match for rich, savory dishes such as braised veal cheek with a red wine reduction or porcini mushroom risotto.
