Rocche di Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo

None of the massive 2017 tannins, quite elegant.

Dense crimson with a tawny rim - the colour of cold black tea. Tarry dusty aromatic nuances, somewhat intoxicating in this excellent vintage. Menthol, Balsamic aromas and a note of dried meat. Fine resolved tannins. So easy to drink. Medium plus intensity. Like most Italian wines designed to accompany food but this was so good and rich you could have it on its own.

This Barolo showed well, plenty of fruit and bold. I recommend decanting.

Ruby color. Medium bodied. Cherry, menthol, & earthy flavors. Moderately tannic.

Very delicious. Very smooth.

the best Barolo I have ever had so smooth and the flavor integrating with bing cherry and cardamom just fantastic

Not sure why WS gave this Barolo a 95. It’s cooking wine at best...

Bold, fruity, medium bodied, some earthy notes, soft tannins, and a nice dry finish very typical of Nebbiolo wines! I thoroughly enjoyed this wine!

Ram loved it.

So Young..!!!
