Barolo Nebbiolo

Giacomo Borgogno & Figli

Riserva Barolo Nebbiolo 1924

The color of weak coffee with some bottle of the bottom gunk. Va on the nose and light notes of roses and dried fruit. On the palate very pure and lifted. Obviously aged but softening with air and bright and pretty. What a surprise given it’s a centurion. β€” a day ago

I think this is an excellent Barolo/nebbiolo. Relatively light and herbal, light red fruit notes, fine tannins. Interesting that I bought for $75 but it now lists for $95+. Would love to drink more. Paired with a nice sangiovese β€” a Brunello di Montalcino β€” and I think this edged that one. RP 96 pts. β€” 2 days ago

Serralunga d'Alba Barolo Nebbiolo 2016

More than a 1000 review of this wine, I feel like I'm coming late to the party πŸ˜…
The nose felt a bit oxydized at first but it blew up after a while. Then came red cherry, wet forest soil, mushrooms, soy sauce, black tea, almond... Wow the complexity of that nose... The palate is marked by a great acid drive, some fruit, with cherry notes, some tea touches, a good width with some matter and almost a meaty thing, some rather harsh and drying tannins (as one could expect) before a long, very long, meaty, juicy, tannic finish that goes on and on and on. A bit more textual and meaty than I expected, a good experience of a cru barolo that I'd like to revisit in other vintages.

Great note @Daniel M . One minor detail: this is a blend of crus from their holdings in Serralunga. If you’re interested in trying their single MGA expressions, look for Vigna La Rosa, Vigna La Delizia, Proprieta Fontanafredda and Vigna La Villa

Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo 2018

Medium β€œtea” rubi robe, nose of crushed flowers, spices, and dark fruits. Good density and body, acidity, cistercian at this juncture but with excellent potential. Give it 6 or 7 years in bottle. β€” 6 days ago

Marcenasco Barolo Nebbiolo

Very nice medium body. Not as bold as a good cab. Finish was a little dry, but who can go wrong with a Barolo. β€” 2 days ago

Vigneto Monvigliero Barolo Nebbiolo 2010

Quite light garnet , wide terracotta rim , more delicate and lighter than expected . High toned sweet , confected spiced strawberry nose, with a slightly smoky hint. On the palate sweet red strawberry , raspberry and red cherry notes , touches of spice and anis , but elegant and silky in texture , with very fine , rounded tannins and fresh acidity . This has good length , detailed and precise finish with anis , fruit pastels and almost chalky hints . Elegant and refined. Very distinctive, really quite unique in style , but very well made and enjoyable at the moment . Drink from now for the next 5-10 years. β€” a month ago

Albe Barolo Nebbiolo 2019

The Albe always has a reputation for being a well valued Barolo and with this example I have to agree. I do think the 5 years have helped. Pretty classic Nebbiolo perfumed nose. Dried flowers and nice fruit. Some leather. On the less intense side, nice lifting acid on the finish. β€” 11 days ago

Monprivato di Castiglione Falletto Barolo Nebbiolo 2017

Bright medium rubi robe, nose of crushed flowers, asian spices and cherries. Medium bodied, light on its feet, drinking truly well now but with many years ahead, its elegant, complex and does not lack power either. Top barolo. β€” 12 days ago
