Giacomo Borgogno & Figli

Barolo Nebbiolo 2006

Beautiful color. Nice acid and full leather could probably hold another 5 years but with a little air it is beautiful! — 10 years ago

Riserva Pinin Barolo Nebbiolo 2004

High tannins and acidity. Earthy. Needed to be decanted hours before drinking. Lovely pairing with dark chocolate strawberries. — 11 years ago

Giacomo Montresor

Capitel della Crosara Ripasso Valpolicella Corvina Blend

Decent drop of Val, the hearty bouquet doesn't bely the depth of body and concentration. — 11 years ago

Giacomo Conterno

Cerretta Langhe Nebbiolo 2008

Very light color almost like a rose. Spectacular aromas of blackberries, Kirsch, lemon zest. Tea leaves on the back palate. Very unique none of the leather one usually gets in Barolo's. — 10 years ago

Riserva Barolo Nebbiolo 1998

9.0

1998: Youthful. Broad on the palette, with tannins not far behind. This is the Barolo for CA Cab lovers, with a chewy, dense mouthfeel, yet packed with fruit and tasting brand new, rather than 17 years old. Also poured at Quince for white truffle menu. While not showing the same level of complexity as the 1971 or 1985 at the same meal, it was roundly admired, and preferred by some. — 10 years ago

Giacomo Brezza & Figli

Barolo Nebbiolo 2007

'07 vintage. Knockout aromatics. Chunky and chewy, bit of time in the decanter and the haunting perfume raises its beautiful head. Brilliant structure. Classically trained. — 11 years ago

Giacomo Grimaldi

Barolo Nebbiolo 2010

Hard mentha edge, yet full of classic favors that should develop with time. But quite yum now. — 11 years ago
