2010 Podere Rocche dei Manzoni Barolo Vigna Cappella di Santo Stefano

Nebbiolo more

4/19/2024 - skurtz Likes this wine: 95 points

Decanted for 2-3h. Definitely wow! Huge perfumy nose of violets and vanilla. The palate has intense cherries, baking spices, tannins, tar, and a touch of acidity in the finish too. Compared with the '08, this '10 is rounder, gentler, and more accessible. 94/95

2021 Podere Rocche dei Manzoni Barbera d'Alba Superiore Sorito Mosconi

4/8/2024 - andrewfowler Likes this wine: 89 points

More proof that Barbera kinda smells like Dr. Pepper. Fleshy as hell, plum, both black and red cherry, clove, caramel, tobacco, licorice, and that specific new car smell kind of leather. The palate is rich, with more chocolate coming to the fore. Food-friendly Barbera acidity, very approachable and at the same time some good complexity.

1999 Podere Rocche dei Manzoni Barolo Vigna Madonna Assunta La Villa Riserva

3/3/2024 - La Sprezzatura wrote: 94 points

this was way more progressed and aged from the beginning than the monprivato 89 we tasted side by side, showing all its charming age.
tobacco, licorice, tar, some sweetness to it too, sous-bois, some hints of coca cola, plus some smoke.

on the palate very nice and elgant, silky, smooth and precise, also iodine,
drink flow very high.

compared to the mascarello 1989 side by side, this was less elegant.
I was told this is a modern producer, but with age the oakyness fades away apparently, as it was not as oak dominant than other, younger modern barolos

Piemonte (Barolo & Barbaresco) tasting (at my home): Deep ruby color with a garnet hue.
The nose is complex and inviting, with aromas of black cherry, plum, licorice, tar, and smoke.
The palate is full-bodied and powerful, with flavors of black cherry, plum, licorice, tar, and smoke.
The tannins are ripe and well-integrated, and the finish is long and persistent.

This wine is still young and has the potential to age for many years to come.
It is perfect for drinking now with a decanter, or it can be cellared for future enjoyment.

2003 Podere Rocche dei Manzoni Barolo Rocche

1/25/2024 - J @ y H @ c k Likes this wine: 92 points

Popped, decanted and followed for 4 hours. Not a lot of sediment. The nose has some blue flowers - violets and stuff. At first, there was customary creosote/railroad ties that you would expect from a Barolo, but it soon morphed into a very nice dark fruit and floral palate. Extremely smooth with no rough edges. I would say two hours after decant was the peak, but it mostly leveled off after that with not much of a down turn. Very little evidence of prunes or other flavors from the extremely hot weather that year. My guess is that they picked a bit on the early side. Overall an excellent wine. I have had good luck with early 2000s Rocche dei Manzoni wines and this is no exception. Although this wine is still at its plateau, I get a very tiny whiff of sherry. Is it the additional fruit from age or the beginning of a downturn? Hard to say. I think it is the former and it has time before it turns, but no need to hold this longer.

Good Piedmont Chardonnay. Oak, with notable extract and body. Burgundian in character, which is what the producer themselves advertise. Decent aging potential.

A gorgeous perfumy Barolo from one of my favorite producers. Decanted for 2-4h. OLDWINES pretty much said it all in his recent note, but for me, I loved the expansive roses, vanilla, and heat in the nose, as well as the palate attack of juicy red cherries, a touch of cranberries, minerals, tar, oak, cheeky tannins (!), and the right amount of acidity, in a long smooth finish. Complex, masculine, and plenty of structure and stuffing for 5+ more years in the cellar, if I can keep my hands off 'em. A wonderul almost year-end treat, paired with an assortment of spicy sushi rolls.

Very modern but well made Barolo. The new oak is clearly there but nicely integrated. Cherry fruit dominates but there is good complexity with layers of tobacco, earth, tar, spices and even some butterscotch on the finish. Nice silky texture. Plenty of life left.

wonderful barbera with complex taste and nose and hints of gentle oak. At the beginning of its best drinking window with a perfect cellaring time. At this price tag, no competition. Highly recommended

Surprise of the night for me. Didn't expect this to overperform as much as it did. It is drinking at its peak with beautiful verve and expression. Truly world-class wine at a fraction of the price of Champagnes. Rich and intense with some honeyed and caramelized notes. Exactly how I prefer my sparkling. This was a joy.

12/2/2023 - MaurizioAbba Likes this wine: 94 points

Great example of what Alta langa Chardonnay can do.

Pale lemon fine perlage and wonderful soft mousse.

The nose is complex, multi layered, the primary notes are focused on mature fruit, lemon juice, red apple, hints of yellow peach, moving to pineapple flavours. Long lees maturation shows in bread and brioche, helped by full malolactic bringing cream and butter. Finally, ageing brings orange marmalade and some spice (ginger). Wonderful complexity.

In the mouth, the entrance shows good acidiity (medium overall), medium body and medium alcol. The wine has no added sugar, making it bone dry but with roundness provided entirely by the treatment of the acids. The aftertaste is soft, long, mellow, with notes of cream and pineapple.

This is a splendid work. It's a made product, with heavy intervention to bring to a very deliberate result, and it must be taken as such. Once in this optic, the wine is shining, fun, a never ending source of new facets. Wonderful

My last of 18 bottles. Just an explosive nose of red fruits dominated by strawberries. This wine just gained power and got darker and darker as it sat in our glasses even after being slow oxed for 12 hours. The concentration of fruit was right at n your face. So dark no one could believe that it’s almost 23 yrs old. Still a lot of life and room to improve.

What an amazing Barolo!
Still young, but already showing off gravitas through it's amazing structure. Has the future for it (far, far away!)
May very well hit the 100 mark.

May have been the best day of this wine's life. Perfect balance of dusty red/dark fruit, earth, tar and then a very pretty long finish. Med+ density. Made me wonder why I don't drink more Barolo!

decanted 2 hours, little sediment, nearly opaque black cherry red, slightest tinge of brown at rim, fine, rich, deep nose, plum, mulberry(?), shows some complexity of age, palate smooth, well balanced, mouth coating, distinctly drying tannins at the finish, good length and excellent persistent aftertaste, a powerful and chewy wine, at its peak but will hold, best paired with flavoursome food because of its power, characterful wine

One of the WOTN. Though not sure if we were having the 12' as CT did not have this listed. Cement aging and vineyards from a sandy soil produce an exceptional fruit forward medium bodied elegant wine. Magnum only.
