Azienda Agricola Philine Isabelle Preda, Barolo DOCG, Italy 2022
Azienda Agricola Philine Isabelle ‘Preda’ Barolo DOCG, Piedmont 2022
A distinctive, limited-production Barolo from Philine Isabelle, an exciting young winemaker bringing a thoughtful, biodynamic approach to Piedmont. Sourced from the Preda vineyard in the Barolo commune, this expressive Nebbiolo favors elegance and precision over sheer power. Aromas of raspberry, red cherry and dried rose unfold into white pepper, savory earth and delicate spice. The palate is finely woven, with vibrant acidity, graceful red fruit and structured yet approachable tannins, finishing with a lingering mineral note. Crafted with native yeasts and aged in stainless steel and large, seasoned casks, it captures the traditional soul of Barolo with a fresh, understated touch. The 2022 is the final vintage from the Preda site, adding a special sense of provenance to an already rare wine. An exciting bottle for collectors seeking small-production Barolo beyond the usual names.
