    The Elio Altare 2020 Barolo Unoperuno leads with floral aromas of crushed rose and lilac and then continues to rich fruit with dark currant and plum. Oak toast or baking spice appears on the nose, but it also defines the palate. It shows a softness or plushness that is rare to Nebbiolo, and the tannins are already quite silky and approachable. The blend of fruit this year is Arborina (in La Morra), Cannubi (in Barolo), Pernano (in Castiglione Falletto), Sarmassa (in Barolo) and Cerretta (in Serralunga d'Alba). This is a limited release of 1,100 bottles.
