Barolo Nebbiolo


The 2019 Barolo is absolutely gorgeous. Bright and lifted, with striking inner perfume, the 2019 is an absolute charmer. Rose petal, blood orange, mint, spice and new leather develop with a bit of time in the glass, adding to the wine's charm and sensuality. The 2019 is delicate and alluring. It's everything Barolo should be, especially at this level. Best of all, the 2019 should be a fabulous value in the world of Barolo. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, January 2024)

From a Coravin, and perhaps a bit oxidized. Regardless, a bit underwhelming.

Beautiful all the way through, aromatics evolve into amazing florals within a couple of hours of opening.
