From: 2021 Barolo Part Two: Restless Energy (Sep 2025)
The 2021 Barolo Giannetto is laced with macerated cherry, blood orange, spice, cedar and pipe tobacco. Fleshy and quite deep, with terrific resonance, the 2021 has much to recommend it. This is one of the more overt Porro Barolos I can remember tasting of late. Readers will have a hard time keeping their hands off this jewel of a wine.
- By Antonio Galloni on September 2025
Guido Porro turned out a striking set of 2021 Barolos. In the past I have found the wines often a bit diffuse and lacking focus. Not the 2021s. The wines are deep, layered and super-expressive. Porro’s Barolo Vignarionda is his best yet. Don’t miss it.
