Fratelli Barale
Riserva Bussia Barolo Nebbiolo
And all around beautiful example of Barolo showing ample and laser-focused red fruit, tar, roses, and fresh-tilled earth. Ten years in this already drinking beautifully. This soon-to-be legendary vintage has such a terrific life ahead of it.

Jan 31st, 202017/20 (92/100) Ещё молодой, но не вполне юный аромат с нотами спелых ягоды вишни и ежевики с намеком на бальзамик и сухую древесину. Довольно тельное с высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, чуть шероховатыми танинами. Мощная структура. Молодо, нужно дать полежать ещё как минимум три года.

Sep 14th, 2020Couldn’t be more classic. Fair warning though: Even after 17 years, could use more time. 6 hour decant and still a bit hot and tannic. Great with a rich lamb ragu though

Jan 21st, 2018Textbook traditional Barolo. Really tight mouthfeel. Orange peel, dried roses, mint, umami, earth/iron. Ethereal, pure, pristine! Bravo!
