Falletto di Serralunga Dolcetto d'Alba 2016

A lot of wine in one glass. Full, foot-on-the-gas dark red fruit, but went down easy. A little hairy chested for Sunday night pizza, but fun nonetheless. — 5 years ago

Truffle, earth and mushrooms notes went hand in hand with truffle pâté. Developing and unlikely to improve with further aging ... drink now — 8 years ago

Way too much new oak and feels overextracted. Can’t get past the oak on the nose and hides the fruit on the palate at this point. — 8 years ago

Saracco

Moscato d'Asti 2016

Located in the village of Castiglione Tinella in the heart of the Piedmont Region called the Langhe, four generations the Saracco family has been Moscato d' Asti. Clear, light, almost white, with small bubbles, Frizzante-style. Pronounced nose, floral and ripe white peaches, with notes of honeysuckle. Sweet, the palate follows the nose with the addition of orange citrus flavors with low acidity and nice medium length finish. Tasting Sample. — 8 years ago

Tobacco, leather, dark dark cherry, blueberry, wild mushroom on the nose. Medium/strong tannins. Excellent smooth finish. Bright cherry (typical Italian), Coca-Cola, dark chocolate on the palate. Barolo is Barolo. It rarely disappoints and this certainly is a fine example. — 9 years ago

Rocche dei Rivera di Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo

Despite being 18 years old it needed hours and hours of decanting and towards the end of the night it finally started coming around. Want to have it again in a few years with hours of decanting to see how it's matured. — 11 years ago

Soft and approachable modern Barolo. Deep red cherry and plum with a hint of spice and liquorice. Nicely balanced and easy to drink. Lovely wine but I did prefer the 2011. — 9 years ago

Bricco Rocche Barolo Nebbiolo 2006

2006 vintage. Good old fashioned Barolo. Light colour and hue. Medicinal notes. Floral and red cherry. Gorgeous crunchy tannins. Long finish. This is a step up from the '89. Plenty of years ahead of this wine. Very good indeed. NB: after 2 hours this wine is singing: roses and tar to the fore, integrated tannins, crisp acidity. Bouquet is out of this world. — 11 years ago

Vietti

Rocche di Castiglione Barolo Nebbiolo 2015

Medium Ruby with complex aromas of floral, dark berry fruits, herbs and oak notes. On the palate raspberry and ripe cherry, savory with oak spice, a fresh earthiness and tightly wrapped spices. Tannins are very firm and needs at least 5 more years to start showing some finesse. Ling finish ending with fruit, herb and earthy mineral. Let this one sit for a while. A little pricy. Tasting Sample! — 6 years ago

Riserva Rocche di Castiglione Falletto Barolo Nebbiolo 2009

Took an hour or so to open up, but pretty good once it did. Beautifully clear Ruby red color, medium- viscosity. Nose sees oak, ripe cherries, some mustiness and earthiness. Palette sees cherry cough drops, cola, ripe cherries. A short finish was a little disappointing, but as some that isn't a huge Piedmont fan, I enjoyed this. — 9 years ago
