Non ha difetti il re, ma nemmeno pregi e ancora una volta le aspettative sono deluse, quasi una tardiva, lavorato seduti in vigna da quanto è ripida, pressa di legno, botti di oltre 60 anni, tanti presupposti disattesi, nessun difetto ma nessun pregio e alla fine non si apre mai.... — 10 years ago

Very fine and exceptionally well made Barolo. Botti rather than Barrique I am told. Consistent red fruits with a savoury undertone. Perfectly well integrated and very long tannins. Superb for such a young wine - 2011 seems a very good year.

Gorgeous! For me it has that Brunello factor, traditional aging in botti, still nice fruit, dusty tannins and balanced allover. This is what I want for a wine. Ready to drink now! — 9 years ago

Much more Elegant and delicate aroma than vietti. Sense of botti not brq- delicate elegant version of fruit. Very lovely and elegant. Med body, med p acid, more acidic and elegant boddy than vietti, more sour red fruit and raspberry reminder. Smooth, silky, elegant, perfect for glass wine. 20 — 9 years ago

2012 Guiesppe Rinaldi Ruche. After tasting the rather closed 2010 Rinaldi wines from botti, it was a revelation to get my nose in a glass of Ruche. Potpourri and berries match with a fresh and vibrant texture. Simple, fun, fruity and an absolute joy to drink. — 12 years ago

Super pretty Langhe Nebbiolo. All fruit is from Castiglione Falletto in Barolo but they don't age it as long and the winemaking is a bit different than DOCG guidelines call for. Fermentation in stainless and elevage in the traditional neutral Slavonian oak botti. Pours a pale ruby-garnet hue. Nose of slightly dried sour cherry, potpourri and rose + violet floral tones, new asphalt, slightly volatile balsamic character, and a slight fennel-spiced cured meat note. Palate confirms the nose with the fruit showing a bit more prominently on the palate. Acid is screaming and tannin is firm with moderate (+) intensity yet already decently fine grained and caressing, this could honesty probably do well from a couple more years in bottle. Medium (-) body but still has some layered texture to it. Couldn't go wrong with this and a hearty baked pasta dish. Very tasty and a great value for Piedmont Nebbiolo of decent quality. — 9 years ago

This is by far my favorite chardonnay. Wild ferment, feet stomped, large botti. It's wonderfully perfumed, fresh, energizing. It begs you to pair it with food. — 9 years ago

Warm, ripe tones show from this hot vintage. Aged in traditional botti, this is an appealing rendition of the wine to be drunk in the near term. Bravo! — 11 years ago

God I love a good ripasso. Not more than Amarone, but they're usually half the price! This one is gorgeous, lots of very ripe cherry and plum on the nose and palate. The finish is warm and round, with just enough oak from those 12 months in Slovenian botti. — 11 years ago
