2019 Kirkland Signature Barolo

Nebbiolo more

4/26/2024 - Chill51 wrote: 88 points

Lovely garnet color out of the bottle. Floral nose with hints of leather and peppercorns. Very bright on the border of being acidic, but smoothed out as the meal progressed. Short and dry finished that had a tinge of cocoa and espresso. Not as good as the 2017 Kirkland Barolo, but a nice food wine for the casual meal. This may benefit from some aging.

On day two a sweet smell of perfume but not quite as robust as one day one straight off the cork pull.

👁 dark Ruby brick stone rim

👃 sweet ripe cherry and minimal plums, Madagascar vanilla, sandal and beechwood, truffles, super fine

👄 full- body; all the 👃 promises, eucalyptus and mint, so classic and still so modern as the fruit is so pure and there is a very long finish

Clearly producer trumps vintage! This is a great achievement from the master of modernisty in a tough vintage!

Ready now - 2033

2018 Alberto Voerzio Barolo La Serra

Nebbiolo more

4/26/2024 - shemmy wrote: NR

Alberto Voerzio farms some of the greatest vineyards in the Barolo village of La Morra. His passion for the land and its wines was remarked on even when he was a child. He studied enology and then gathered experience in Burgundy and Bordeaux before returning to La Morra to work with his renowned cousin Roberto Voerzio until he was able to buy his own plots in 2006. Alberto farms biodynamically, ferments spontaneously in temperature controlled stainless steel, then racks to barriques of which a quarter are new oak.

This wine is 1.3 hectares in the famed cru of La Serra. It faces southeast perched at the top of the slope on totonian soils. The wines of La Serra are known for being aromatic and graceful with a supple floral quality that makes them easy to drink on release, even as they they age remarkably as well. Alberto’s La Serra is all red berries and cherries, cedar wood and purple flowers, leather and amaro herbs. The structure is like a valley made out of ruby light.

FOOD PAIRING
dry aged new york strip, demi-glacé, potatoes gratin

SERVICE NOTES
This nebbiolo would appreciate some air. Either time in your cellar (3 years) or time in the decanter (1-2 hours) before it really comes into itself. This is also a great choice for longer aging in your collection; 15 to 20 years would be just fine.

2019 Diego Morra Barolo San Lorenzo di Verduno

Nebbiolo more

3/20/2024 - oldwines Likes this wine: 91 points

Tasted at the Barolo and Barbaresco World Opening, NYC. This seems to be the first vintage of this cru on CT. May be the first vintage made of this cru by this producer. it was aged in 20% new botti, so again there seemed to be a bit more wood influence that expected from a more traditional producer under normal circumstances. All in all balanced and tasty and probably better with significant cellaring.

Tasted at the Barolo and Barbaresco World Opening, NYC .his is a 10 vineyard blend, Classico bottling. aged 6 months in Tonneau (5HL) and 2 yeas in botti (30HL). Solid wine, more wood-influenced than the Monvigliero cru for sure but nicely done.

A bit backwards and not showing enough fruit. Got a touch better with air but this wine seems to need more time. The muted fruit is showing crushed cherry flavors.

Black cherry cola, dirt & earthy notes. Second wave of meat, smoked meat and some spice.

Great depth, then a wonderful bright line of acidity. Just glorious with a lengthy roll off

Stood up for a week. Slow ox’d, no decant, for 5 hours. Just spectacularly pure, with perfectly integrated nose and palate showing rose petals, red fruit, tar, leather, mushroom and forest floor.

Continued to open in the glass and evolve, improving along the way without ever getting tired. A truly great wine.

Serralunga grapes from owned vineyards Serra, Manocino and San Bernardo and from an external organic grower. Still tannic but approachable now. No rush.
