Monvigliero

Nested under: Barolo

Monvigliero is a Verduno MGA and one of the most useful names for explaining Barolo's aromatic range. The wines are often described as fragrant, red-fruited, spicy, and detailed, with tannin that can feel fine-grained rather than heavy. The entry belongs in a consumer encyclopedia because the name is increasingly visible on labels and wine lists.
