Not my favorite Italian, but wasn’t bad. Slight oaky? — 10 months ago
Medium weight, but not a simple wine. Cherries, strawberries, salt, loose dirt underneath. Not a traditional Barolo profile, but good nonetheless. Apparently liked it better than the 2015, previously reviewed (8.7). — 2 months ago
My first Timorasso. At first a bit dainty & shy on the nose; crushed nectar pits, white flowers, some white peach & artichoke hearts. On palate very textured, like Huet Chenin, but in a parallel universe. Minerally & reserved, this feels like it could go decades more- which is my understanding it can. The aroma notes are echoed on palate, with additional quince & pale fig notes, with a very slight off dry character (overall quite dry). For about 26$ a steal— I guess it’s a hard sell, this Timarosso.. This can either run as a food wine or not, & it’s delicious. — 7 months ago

Expressive nose, a bit reduced at first, then on ti ripe cherries, cocoa, liquorice , plums. Ample bodied, son of a dry and hot vintage, acidity that holds the alcohol and hood length and youth for a 2012. Remarkable, unexpected village, Albelda, must be the high land on the way to Clavijo. — 10 months ago
Beautiful citrusy palate with a nice finish. — 4 years ago
