Surprise! A precocious Barolo showing off with good balance and acidity. Producer alert. — 9 days ago

My ‘ house’ wine shared w friends & paired with baked Cod & Roquefort sauce, roasted vegetables, & barley. Pretty in color & on the palate: rusted rose hips, some distant forest floor. Medium plus acidity but enough to cut through the Roquefort sauce, & low enough tannins to not spar with the cod. — 2 years ago

This can easily go up in score, pretty young but did great over 5 days tapped twice with a coravjn and then cork pull the last day.

Outside of the OG Ferrando, and there is not much else bottled here outside of them and Produttori, outstanding first try of this one. — 7 months ago

Winery founded in 73, still unsure if this was made at Produttori, who released their own 67 Cru Martinenga or if made at Marchesi di Gresy without commercial release 🤷🏻‍♂️ This seemed much different than the 67 Produttori I had tried, it had some strong cedar notes and was ashy. Taste was delicious, made up for a difficult nose. Was hoping for more, but still a great 👍🏽 — 4 years ago

At this stage Ferrando Carema White Label ‘16 blows away Produttori Barbaresco ‘16. Produttori is very ripe, and the alcohol is less in balance. The ‘16 normale does not really exhibit the freshness and elegance I associate with classic Barbaresco. Yes, the concentration and depth is impressive, and maybe at 10-20+ years the wine will achieve harmony. For now it exhibits more climate change character than the high tone energy desired. This is a Grey Market bottle purchased recently. I wonder if less than pristine storage and/or transit was an influence. I will compare notes with bottles purchased on release and via authorized Importer somewhere down the road. — 6 months ago

Wow! Light brown/brick red (classic Nebbiolo) color. Amazing early notes of cherry, smoke, savory baking spices blowing from the glass. Light, almost thin mouth feel, but long, lingering finish with soft, chewy tannins. Definitely shines with acidity of tomato sauce and fennel-flecked sausage. The co-op that produces this high altitude gem makes me smile in recognition of my benchmarked Nebbiolo experience….nearly impossible to find at retail… I greedily mixed a case of their three levels. Far better than it needs to be; these have become my “house” pasts/pizza quaff while they last. — 2 years ago
