Enjoyed this wine. Very robust, similar to a California cab. Smells like leather and dark fruits. Lots of tannins, strawberry, blackberry, and cranberries. Nicely balanced. Dark purple, opaque. Had with chorizo con vino, paired very well. — 8 months ago

Figli Luigi Oddero

Convento Barolo Nebbiolo 2017

8.9

Presented double-blind. The wine is bright garnet moving towards an orangish rim and a transparent core; medium+ viscosity and no staining of the tears nor were there signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe Morello cherry, bruised raspberries, some tar, some red flowers, dried herbs and some dry gravelly earth for good measure. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high, nearly rip-your-face-off tannin and medium(+?) acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The fruit is generous on the palate and almost has a sweet attack. Due to the color, nose and structure, initial conclusions have me thinking Nebbiolo or Sangiovese but since I get no staining at all and the tannins are so high, I wasn’t comfortable calling Sangiovese. So I called Nebbiolo, from Italy, from the Langhe, 2020…and I stopped there. I thought it might be a Langhe Nebbiolo from a really great producer in Barolo and maybe the vintage was playing with me. Welp…I was more than in the ballpark. “Convento” is Luigi Oddero’s second wine made from fruit predominately sourced from La Morra. Drink now with some patience and through 2032. — 3 months ago
