GUIDO PORRO LANGHE NEBBIOLO CAMILU 2022

Style: Savoury & Detailed

Guido Porro is no longer an under-the-radar-superstar. Reviewers have been referring to him in this manner for years now but the truth is he is a bona fide out in the open superstar, offering remarkably beautiful, traditionally styled Barolo from the premier commune of Serralunga. Not only that, he remains almost alone when it comes to his pricing which seems to be stuck in a time warp. Guido himself is an uncomplicated and intuitive farmer/winemaker. He is deeply aware of the importance of his holdings on the premium slopes of Serralunga but his winemaking style has changed little to what his father before him practiced and while for a long period, this put traditionalists like him on the outer, these days this styling is most definitely back in favour.

From the dry vintage of 2022, the intensity has been amped here. In the hands of the Porro's they've injected buoyancy and delineation to the sweetly spiced red fruits which are tempered by some earthy notes of mulch. The pedigree of the fruit is on show, this is from a subplot within their mighty Lazzarito Cru. Cascading tannins envelope the delicious core, signing off with a cheek-puckering signature reminding you that this is a fragrant and youthful nebbiolo. GABRIELLE POY
