A clean and pleasant, early drinking Barolo with fresh berries, medium body, and very fine, non-impeding tannins. —J.S.
What We Thought: This remarkably smooth expression of Nebbiolo is nicely rounded. Its medium-bodied, lightly earthy palate features ripe black cherry fruit along with notes of nutmeg and licorice, finishing with some fine-grained, lightly dusty tannins.
Toasted notes and dried herbs give savoury depth to the ripe red fruits. The dense tannic structure gives the wine a firm finish.
Aromas of rose petal, chopped herb and tilled soil lead the nose. The savory palate offers crushed raspberry, star anise and tobacco alongside taut, refined tannins and bright acidity. Drink 2024–2033. — K.O.
