點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：4099

A perfumed, red-fruited Barolo with lots of floral and spicy notes on offer. Polished and refined with medium body and chalky tannins. Juicy acidity and a refreshing fruit-forward finish. Better after 2025.

This supple, elegant Barolo is highlighted by rose, cherry, strawberry, licorice and underbrush aromas and flavors, but don't be fooled -- there’s also plenty of structure, in the form of lightly chewy tannins that rule the finish. Showing two sides today, this needs time to integrate. Best from 2027 through 2046. 2,800 cases made, 750 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add

This solidly built red is marked by cherry, strawberry, mint and tar flavors. Lively, with a slim profile and firm, well-integrated tannins that remain balanced. Persistent finish. Best from 2024 through 2038. 3,000 cases made, 750 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add

The Cascina Chicco 2017 Barolo Rocche di Castelletto is bright and perfumed with a first impact of lilac and rose that leaves a lasting impression. That first layer of floral intensity lifts slowly to reveal a core of red and purple fruits with cassis and plum. The aromas are subtle and soft, creating a big contrast against the wine's mouthfeel that plays up its intensity and tannins in a much more evident and determined manner. The wine will surely benefit from cellar aging, but I'm not sure there is enough fruit to carry it over the long haul.

An attractive mix of rose, cherry, menthol and spice aromas and flavors are the hallmarks of this balanced red, which features a solid foundation of vibrant acidity and dense tannins, plus a lingering aftertaste of cherry, iron, tar and spice. Best from 2023 through 2045. 3,500 cases made, 750 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
