Hint of peppermint on the nose rolls back to reveal wormwood and roses, chocolate ganache, rhubarb, and dried grapefruit peel. Velvety and complex, with peppercorn, red apple peel, cinnamon dust, dried rose petal, dried violet, and roobios tea.

2016. Hoisin, plum and tar nose with maple flower and sticky nettle notes. Rye bread and caraway. Grippy graphite entry of sour cherry, black cherry skins and tobacco. Firm tannins and smoke blow it out.

Classic, elegant #barolo from a famous producer family. Classic roses, tart cherry, dried herbs on the nose. Medium weight on palate, soprano acidity on palate - Iβll leave my other two bottles to age at least 5 years longer but this paired properly with a wild boar Bolognese pappardelle with mushrooms. β 2 years ago
Black cherry, sous bois, dried rose petals. Lovely velvety texture on palate, such strong QPR on this Costco #barolo. β 3 years ago
2013 hoists this producer stratospherically. Great wine with integrated tannins. Meaty nose of cured and sliced roast beef and black pepper; tinged brown-brick from its 10 year slumber; cigar wrap, and roulade, graphite and smoke, and just barely, dried, black mushroom and rose petal. The palate is lush. Cherry soft, raspberry reduction, shows round but pronounced tannic dunes. Our tar is integrated, chicory peeks forth, the pepper submerged in a perfect expression of varietal and vintage. Solid work Arpatin (winks at Mother Nature)!

Cola and rose aromas, sweet tobacco and dried cherry shimmer with cilliate violet strands, and seared meat. Eucalyptus awash in tannins rakes the palate initially before softening to black and bing cherries, allspice, cinnamon and cedar. Clove puts the spice over the top in a food-worthy wine that checks every Barolo box and then some.

Red cherry and dried cranberry, rose petal, cherry lozenge, cedar, cherrywood, cypress, fresh tobacco, light black pepper. Firm palate.
Grainy tannins but velvet coated. Red currants, black cherry extract, black olive, resinous black currant, tart red tea. Green tobacco. Fresh oregano, bay leaf, cracked pepper. Prickly, pointed and tart, but keeps the interest piqued.

Excellent - nice tannins and a good finish. Some earth and dried berries. It was the perfect accompaniment to Friendsgiving and the masterful sauce and meatballs made by the Noces. #barolo #italiandinner #italianwines β a month ago
