The 2010 Barolo shows light, balanced color and good Nebbiolo finesse. It is a very understated wine and delicate, with notes of mineral, dried fruit and licorice. This is a medium-bodied Barolo without the kick of the big boys.

Fresh and plump, with juicy flavors of cherry, raspberry, licorice, menthol and oak spice. The oak doesn't intrude, and this ends with an aftertaste of black cherry, tar and mineral notes. Best from 2014 through 2027. 6,000 cases made, 1,000 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add

There’s a succulent, sweet element here that resembles Christmas spice or cinnamon roll. Behind that curtain of spice, concentration and intensity are elegant tones of black licorice, cassis, plum and toasted nut. Try this wine with honey-roasted ham embedded with clove. ——M.L.(9/1/2011)—— 90

Lush blackberry and chocolate flavors run deep in this ripe, jammy wine. Bright, attractive and drinking well now, though it's not for the long run.??–null??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
