Giuliano Corino's 2008 Barolo is a gorgeous, fleshy wine graced with layers of dark red fruit, flowers, violets and mint. This supple, juicy Barolo is fairly approachable today, and should continue to drink well for at least another handful of years. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2018.

The 2007 Barolo is a fabulous entry-level wine laced with dark red fruit, smoke and anise, all of which come together nicely in the glass. It possesses outstanding concentration and depth in an utterly engaging, up-front style. The round, textured finish makes it hard to resist a second taste. This is one of the finest wines of the vintage in its category. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022. Proprietor Giuliano Corino has a stunning set of 2007 Baroli on his hands. The wines capture the ripe, open style of the vintage while preserving considerable freshness, aromatic complexity and structure. These are wonderfully complete Baroli that merit serious consideration. I expect most of the wines will drink well with a minium of cellaring, and continue to develop complexity with further time in bottle.
