The most immediately generous of these Manzone bottles: 2000 was a warm, ripe Barolo vintage, and it landed on the softest of the estate's sites. San Stefano di Perno is the western, Santo Stefano flank of the Perno hill in Monforte d'Alba, a hilltop with vines sloping away on all sides over Diano sandstone, soil that yields rounder tannin and more forward fruit than Monforte's tougher exposures. Add a hot year to that and you get a Barolo that was approachable early and is now entirely resolved, all sweetness of fruit and silk rather than grip. The winemaking was strictly traditional, as it always is here, with long fermentation on the skins, about thirty months in large Slavonian casks, no new oak and no fining or filtration; Manzone has since stopped bottling this cru altogether. From a private cellar. Stand it upright, decant gently, and drink it now, because this is not a bottle to keep waiting on.
