Criterion
Barolo Nebbiolo
Ruby color with a bouquet of fruit, herbs and floral notes, fruit from several vineyards, aged in Slavonian and French oak. On the palate flavors of cherry and raspberry with notes of herb pepper, floral and earthy notes. Medium+ finish, ok balance with fine tannins ending with earthy floral notes.

Dec 13th, 2024Great value Barolo from a fantastic vintage. 2013 had the perfect conditions and was considered 5 stars.
I think it has all of the main Barolo characteristics, acidity, tannins, full body, complexity, tar and well balance. What is different in this one was the copper color (which for a 2013 vintage is not expected) and it is more fruity than the average Barolos. Pretty pleasent in mouth and gets better after 45 mins to an hour. Enjoy this beauty :)

Dec 30th, 20162011 opened in 2022. I think this aged very nicely. The color turned a bit bronze but I’ve seen this in amazing, expensive, old Nebbiolo wines before. It hits the tongue strong but then has a nice, long, smooth finish, like it’s rolling off the palate. Smells a bit alcoholic.

Nov 17th, 2021Surprisingly good for Whole Foods wine. More oaky than a normal Barolo. Very dry.

Feb 14th, 2021Delicious and full of flavor without being overbearing- hit the spot. Enjoyed this with ribs on Christmas. Beautiful copper color in the glass. Whole Foods. Would definitely pick up again.
