On the nose, stewed, slightly sweet & sour cherries, strawberries, red licorice/cola, dry hay, soft, understated green pepper, loamy soils, limestone and bright red, fresh florals. The mouthfeel is lush, rich, round and still fresh. The tannins are soft and nearly completely resolved. It's right around it's peak 20 years down the road. Sweet & slightly sour cherries, poached strawberries, cranberry juice, strawberry licorice/cola, red fresh florals, soft, elegant limestone minerals, crushed dry rocks, dry stones, dry hay, suede style leather, round mouth watering acidity and a long elegant finish that lasts well over a minute. The owners are Giancarlo and Nuccia Glode. They purchased the winery in 1984. The Winemaker's are Alberto Montefiori & Paola Gloder. 80 acres of the estate are under vine. Of these, around 38 arces were planted in 70s and are in the process or have been replanted in order to accommodate more dense plantings. Oak use is new Slovenian oak barrels and 500 Liter French oak barrels. The two different sizes of barrels affect bouquet and tannin differently. Total production is 90-95,000 bottles or 7,700 cases. Photos of; the estate, large oak vats, tasting room and grounds. Beautiful property! — 8 years ago

Outstanding wine for the price. First nose is supple and fruity. It starts out very light but after decanting becomes very dry yet fruity. Excellent with a veggie pizza or a light marinara. Fun wine especially for the price. — 9 years ago

Certainly the best value from piedmont I’ve had at $12 a bottle. Good body, enjoyable wine. Drinks like a much more expensive wine, and goes well with cheese and beef dishes. — 7 years ago

Part of Nebbiolo's deception is its ruby red color. The flavors or tar, violets, and red fruit are unmistakable. When some of your pals are switching to party whites a man must keep pounding the Reds. This is a great wine at almost QPR levels. The velvety body matches the finish which lingers for half a minute — 9 years ago

Paola has created a great Brunate in ‘14. Wines from here can be too heavy and intense, but here all’s in place. Impressive considering the vintage, offering tell tale varietal character. — 7 years ago

Dopo un altro anno di riposo, ancora più ricco. Abbinato ad una tagliata di manzo alle erbe aromatiche. Ottimo. La compagnia di Paola e delle mie figlie fa il resto :) — 8 years ago

Had this just after a Paola Bea and it tastes so rich and full. Not exactly how I remembered it. Toasted vanilla, plum, currant and cocoa. Lush. And at less than $25 a great buy. — 8 years ago
