The 2000 Barolo Tortoniano, from a variety of vineyards on the western (La Morra and Barolo) side of the Barolo production zone, is a bit compact, recognizably Nebbiolo in its nose and palate, but somewhat dry and astringent on its finish. Drink: 2005-2012. Perhaps I am being a bit hard on this producer – the Barolo from 2001 does appear to be a very large improvement on the 2000 vintage – and everyone is entitled to an occasional stumble from time to time. But I do think it is legitimate to ask for more. Importer: Kobrand Corp., New York, NY; tel. (212) 490-9300

Very fresh on the nose, with sliced plums and hints of blackberries. Full-bodied, with a solid core of ripe yet clean fruit and very silky tannins. Very polished. Best after 2007. 5,000 cases made, 2,500 cases imported.??–JS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
