The Young Beauty ended in the "to drink everyday" box while moving... so it was opened by mistake. I wish I could really drink such a botte everyday. .. so good,so complex. Need another to age now. — 10 years ago

It's been an honor to sell the wines of the Rovellotti family over the last couple years. From 05 to 07 there has been a high mark of consistency. I'm so happy that people are catching on to the magic of Northern Piedmont. This wine spends around four years in Slovenian botte before bottling. Just released, this is one of the most intense but fragrant wines I've had from Antonello and co. — 11 years ago

A differenza di Barrosu Riserva, Vigne Franzisca nasce da impianti di 80 anni e la pianta genera caratteristiche incredibili. Vino scattante, carattere giovane e di grandi aspettative, seppur già coinvolgente nella sua prima annata. Di colore rubino brillante, profumi di frutto e bosco, la botte completa con tabacco e liquirizia, ma non copre. Nonostante il grado alcolico, che non disturba, il sorso richiede più assaggi. instancabilmente. Intrigante. — 12 years ago

Darker, underripe (likely overcropped) medicinal cherry cough drop. High acid. Truffley mushroom stuff from old botte. Someone calls old hoisin which is great call. Brilliant fruit from excellent storage! Better old Nebbiolo drinking here in the USA than in Italy. Tagging onto the hoisin is the meaty bouillon quality here which just comes from the age of the wine. Even with those savory qualities, the wine maintains its fruit as a spine to hold it all together. End of days soon but in a wonderful place still for the moment. — 11 years ago
