The estate’s Barolo “Tradizionale” is a complex assemblage of various prime parcels, vinified and aged separately, with the final blend determined through tasting trials. Fermentation occurs in cement without the addition of yeasts, and aging takes place in huge oak botti of 65 to 85 hectoliters capacity. This is a gorgeous, elegant Barolo of arresting purity, offering high-toned spices, deep red fruits, a background note of mouthwatering salinity, and a long, graceful finish buttressed by tannins that hug warmly rather than squeeze forcefully. It is undeniably traditional, yet rendered with great sensitivity, and the wine's natural power takes a backseat to an overarching impression of harmony and freshness.

Showing slightly faded aromas, the Figli Luigi Oddero 2019 Barolo is aging quickly, showing dried fruit, currant, pressed flower, desiccated strawberry or dried dates. There are earthy notes of compost pile or autumnal leaf. The tannins are grippy.
