From independent grower Maurizio Sanso's cellar in Bussia San Pietro, Cascina Sòt's 2020 Barolo del Comune di Monforte d'Alba is traditional Nebbiolo made with patience: a 20-day maceration with hand punch-downs, then 32 months in large Slavonian oak casks. The result is rich and inviting, with pure, ripe fruit, a salty mineral edge and Monforte's firm, gripping tannins, earning 95 points from WineAlign's Michael Godel. Enjoy it with game or aged cheeses now, or lay a few bottles down to enjoy well into the next decade.
