pretty label, prettier wine, super elegant for Monforte — 10 years ago
Ahhhhhh, this wine has all the floral, tar and depth of a well aged Barolo from Monforte D'Alba...15 years for the 99 vintage really works! 99 was a colder summer and has matured slowly with true complexity! — 11 years ago
Intense ruby red coloured, fresh to the nose with mature fruits; prunes and blueberries, licorice and notes of aromatic herbs like eucalyptus. The evident tannin and harmony confirm the grand character that is undeniably the terroir of Monforte. — 9 years ago
Cola, ferns, sweet pine wood rot, menthol and eucalyptus and a bit of the old farmyard. — 10 years ago

2007 #Barolo Castelletto from Giovanni Manzone. Drinks beautiful now and it packs a seductive and yet powerful punch that will continue to improve in the years ahead.

Amazing to drink now but still has plenty of life left. Traditional style from the Pajana cru in Monforte. Decanted for 1 hour. showing fresh and fragrant anise, tar, and dried flowers — 9 years ago
Monforte d'Alba delivered well with this vintage. Still strong after 15 years. — 10 years ago
More masculine style , modern , roses , strawberries , spicy . Very good — 10 years ago
More modern style from familia anselma, but ages very well. Adasi is the oldest Monforte vines and Riserva is only made in best vintages. 1996 is easy to drink now. — 11 years ago
They call this Bussia soprana, when monforte and Bussia are combined to make this wine. — 11 years ago
