Oddero is one of the most historic wine producers in Piedmont, with roots tracing back to the 18th century. Based in the La Morra commune of the Langhe, the Oddero family continues to craft high-quality wines in their pristine cellars, from some of the most prestigious vineyards in the legendary Barolo region. 

Oddero's flagship Barolo comprises Nebbiolo from three different MGA sites (Bricco Chiesa and Capalot in La Morra, and Fiasco in Castiglione Falletto) to create a balanced and smooth style that doesn't require as much age as their top-tier site-specific bottlings. The 2022 is particularly accessible at a younger age due to the warmer vintage, and will open up beautifully when decanted to reveal layers of savory cherry and dusty rose notes accented by sparks of licorice and clove. This quintessential Barolo should be on everyone's short list, from seasoned Barolo enthusiasts to those just beginning their journey.
