Enzo Boglietti, Barolo Brunate, 2004
Brunate is the cru Barolo lovers argue about in the best way—a warm, south-facing amphitheater straddling La Morra and Barolo that gives Nebbiolo unusual depth and polish. The Boglietti brothers farm a tiny slice of it, and this 2004 has had two decades to trade its youthful grip for something more open and layered. It comes from the estate's earlier, more sleek and modern-leaning era, so expect a Barolo with reach rather than austerity. If you've been curious what a serious Brunate tastes like once time has done its work, this is your seat at the table. Bottles this mature don't come around often.
