2019 | Domenico Clerico Ciabot Mentin Ginestra | Barolo DOCG Prie Blanc The Wine AdvocateA bit higher pitched compared to the Pajana, the 2019 Barolo Ginestra Ciabot Mentin is pure with anise spice, kirsch, and rocky earth. More linear than the Pajana, with equally if not more impressive length and finish, it is evenly paced, with notes of blood orange, ripe apricot, ripe berries, and candied roses. Outstanding and drinking well already, it easily has another two or more decades ahead. 97 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
