Luciano Sandrone
About Luciano Sandrone
One of the longest-lived and most imposing styles of fine wine on the planet, Barolo counts itself as the widely acknowledged “King of Italian Wines” - with good reason. Forged from the ancient hills of Piedmont and crafted from the iconic Nebbiolo grape, top cuvées are amongst the most desirable bottles in the world.
Beginning his legendary career at the famous Marchesi di Barolo, it was in fact whilst still working there that Luciano Sandrone produced his 1989 Barolo Cannubi Boschis, one of Piedmont’s most revered wines ever. Marked for immeasurable success since before this seminal vintage, Sandrone left in the Spring of 1990 to focus entirely on his own estate – a move the vinous world thanks him for!

Vinous (94)The 1999 Barolo Le Vigne is striking and super-expressive today. Still quite youthful, the 1999 possesses lovely balance and plenty of silkiness. Subtle hints of sweet tobacco, mint, dried cherries, crushed flowers and anise are all layers of nuance in a finely sculpted, chiseled Barolo long on personality and class. This is a fabulous showing from Le Vigne. |
