Vigna Cappella di Santo Stefano Barolo Nebbiolo

More on the fat and round side. Decent wine, good value at around US$50

Vintage 2006
92/100

At 21 years it’s big, bold, tarry. Took an hour decant to show off some roses and leather, beautiful core of fine-grained tannins engulfed in sweet oak and a mineral-driven dark cherry. Outstanding, years to go.

Racy, bright, bold little tart. Great finesse and depth, just barely beginning to shine 🤘🏻

Dark cherries grippy tannins strong acidity.

Solid.

Tar, truffles and violets. At its peak and starting to fade. Drink now

Honest Barolo...still youthful. It's not going to change one's world...but then so few do.

Real 97. Big fruit for a Barolo but nice tarry bitterness.

Still very young. Oak showing but will integrate with 10 years of age.
