Estate-grown Nebbiolo from a Barolo cru, this is old-school Riserva showing tightly wound red fruit, dried rose, tar, and earthy autumn leaf notes with firm tannins. Need times. Lacking a bit of depth for a Riserva - could be a result of a weak vintage.

1997 vintage. Plenty of time to decant and it opened to a very complex and balanced wine. Cherry, olive, green pepper, leather, hay, eucalyptus, earthy with nice minerality. Has an umami character. For me…a little funk of barnyard and brett make it muah! — 2 years ago

Old school showing restraint and tradition. However, the fruit is a bit muted cherry and takes a backseat to earthy tones of forest floor, leather, and dried herbs. Tannins are firm yet balanced, and the finish carries a touch of tar and rose.
A solid entry level Barolo. — 3 months ago

I usually like Barolo from La Morra but this was somewhat of a dud. Very surprising as 2016 was an excellent year. It was unidimensional from opening to a few hours later. Shy nose, dark cherry, licorice and more mineral than undergrowth on the palate, and the finish was the highlight with a long leathery finish where hints of spice finally appeared. Maybe an off bottle given the ratings?
Different bottle a couple years later in September 2025 - much better - the prior bottle must have bern a bad bottle. This bottle has all the smoothness spice earth and cherry- based complexity that reflects the excellent 2016 vintage. Still a bit of grippy tannins at the finish. Very happy with this bottle. — 2 years ago

HWT - Eric especially liked it, it was a rich and robust red that went well with food. $122 is pricy though — 2 months ago

Lovely Nebbiolo rose. Fragrant nose with abundance of chalky mineral and seashell salinity. Crisp and refreshing. Just a hot summer day needs. — 4 months ago

Deep garnet color. Aromas of bright/ripe/sweet red fruit, rose petals, charcoal and light oak. Ripe red cherry and plum fruit on the palate with hints of sweet spices. Long finish with pleasant notes of wood smoke. Juicy tannins and quite elegant for such a young Nebbiolo based wine. Quite fresh and invigorating. Thanks for sharing, Keith S. — 10 months ago
