Serralunga d'Alba Barolo Nebbiolo 2021

9.3

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple of hours. The 2021 Classico pours a bright garnet color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose the wine is developing with beautiful notes of ripe Morello cherry, raspberry, tart forest strawberry’s, a whole bouquet of roses, hibiscus, saltwater taffy, tar, assorted green herbs, old wood and dry dusty earth. After about an hour or so, pomegranate enters the chat. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. These are early days but I’m really excited to track how these evolve with time. Drink now through 2051. — 8 months ago

@Pooneet K I’ve had enough to confidently believe they are built for the long haul.

Fantastic Barolo - medium bodied but light and silky on the palate. Blackberries, leather, smoked currants, tobacco, with wonderful complexity and balance — 9 years ago

Barbera d'Alba 2024

9.0

More in alignment with WS review: “Cherry, raspberry, violet and mineral aromas and flavors mark this perfumed red. Racy and elegant, with defining acidity. Persistent finish. Drink now through 2028. 3,300 cases made, 1,000 cases imported.” — Bruce Sanderson… Versus WE: “Like a garden at twilight, this Barbera lifts with violets and lavender before diving into a pool of plums and boysenberries, kissed by fresh herbs. The palate mirrors this purple-fruited dance with juicy precision. Give it a slight chill and watch it become the life of the party.” — Jeff Porter. — 8 months ago

Totally on point, has the classic intensity of the vintage, but showing some undergrowth complexity indicative of the age. Really needs some food, but loving the richness to it. — 10 years ago
