4/24/2024 - Mark1npt Likes this wine: 93 pointsDecanted for 1-2 hours as we dove into it.....similar to past bottles. What is very intriguing is that it does not degrade at any point through the night over 5-6 hours of air. It's light in the glass, light on its feet and just beautiful cherry, licorice and leather on the palate. What great qpr with this one........ |

3/4/2023 - _Alex_ Likes this wine: 90 pointsLys mot medium granatrød. Delikat og moden Barolo på den lettere siden. Roser, lær og deilige, mineralske toner av våt jord og skogbunn. Frisk og lang finish med avslepte tanniner. |

7/27/2022 - Keith Roberts Likes this wine: 90 pointsAt ten years old, this is drinking smooth and subtle and I am on my last bottle of this 2012 vintage - which seems Drinking Up time. Quite light but full-falvoured. |

7/12/2022 - Kozakofthewest Likes this wine: 91 pointsEverything is very mild , floral/herbal with accent on pine nuts/bree. Tannins resolved. A bit too much acidity for my taste but all together a very clean and fresh wine. With food acidity goes away. To me this is what a good old Italian feels like. This would rival a good 25y/o Bordeaux. |

5/10/2022 - ewhite Likes this wine: 91 pointsreally nice, mature Barolo! Light bricking, as others have mentioned. Minimal decant, and surprisingly almost no sediment. Warm, inviting nose red fruit, roses, leather, earth, and spice. Quite supple and interesting on the palate, with some breadth, good fruit (but not front and center), fine, fully resolved tannins, and a medium finish. This is quite good, drink now. |

4/20/2022 - Mark1npt Likes this wine: 92 pointsPretty consistent with my last note on this one....cork still crumbles even when using an ah-so. Maybe a hint more bricking and lightening of the wine further. The nose and palate remain intact with great cherry fruit and leather, maybe a hint of anise as well. Still needs 2 hours to fully open and meld together. Some left in the bottle to try tomorrow. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (2) |

2/21/2022 - YuriyG Likes this wine: 92 pointsIt is only a Langhe but it drank wonderfully. Perfectly aged. Rose and tar present, but also some classic Bordeaux notes (given the grape composition). Food friendly and really solid. Wish I had more. |

1/26/2022 - mcktuck wrote: 89 pointsFairly modern Barolo that seemed to show almost claret-like notes of leather and tobacco. Bigger fruit profile that gave a few hints of over-ripeness, but not quite pruny or jammy. |

5/2/2021 - caspernick Likes this wine: 91 pointsA gift from a neighbor, I was not sure what to expect. A slight bricking on the edges of an otherwise pale purple sheen. On the nose, a beautiful bouquet of mushroom, cherry and bacon. On the palate, strawberry, cherry and upfront tannins. The mid palate reveals more cherries, but darker this time. The tannins are really starting to grip and the wine finishes very dry indeed. The gaminess I sensed on the nose has all but disappeared, taken over by brutish tannins. This is not a delicate wine, nor is it very fruit forward anymore. But it is good. In its own way, this wine exudes power and poise at the expense of fruit and finesse. I am going with 91 points for this $50 wine. 4 stars. |

2006 Monti Barbera d'Albamore |
5/1/2021 - Weinberg Falls wrote: 91 pointsDeep purple-black in the glass. Big, hot nose of black cherry and plum jam, tobacco leaf and raisiny alcohol. Rich palate of blackcurrant and blueberry. Nicely integrated tannins at this age and a long, languid finish of of jam, balsamic and dried herbs. I'm sure this wine was a fruit-bomb beast when it was young, but age as calmed it into a really lovely Barbera. 91 |

3/19/2021 - Jessie and Max Likes this wine: 93 pointsGood stuff! My first time tasting aged Barolo, so I can't compare it to others, but this was really nice. I found it on Wine Access and wondered why it was so affordable ($35), but decided to give it a try and I'm glad I did. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

3/14/2021 - jkvedar Likes this wine: 93 pointsMy last bottle. Opened about 45 minutes before dinner but didn’t decant. Paired with ravioli, marinara and meatballs. The aroma changed quite rapidly over time. Showing exceptionally well tonight. Violets, tar, “old books” on the nose. The palate is well-balanced with soft tannins and sharp acidity. Long finish. |

1/28/2021 - studleytrey Likes this wine: 92 pointsChecking in on this 20 year old with braised short ribs and pappardelle, and it's still drinking well and a great pairing. Tannins are pretty integrated now, though now that I'm past dinner and standalone sipping, I'm getting a little grip. Bricking garnet color with transparency. Aromas of roses, tar, fennel, dry spices, black tea, and maple syrup. Medium (+) body, acid, and finish, with flavors of high toned red fruits, lemon, orange peel, spice, and minerals. This is a great wine, although I'm not quite as high on it as the last bottle 8 years ago. |

1/14/2021 - Decanting Queen Likes this wine: 93 pointsMark shared this bottle and we drank during a zoom tasting. I agree 100% with his note below. This Barolo is perfectly in its drinking window and drinking well with minimal decant. The tannins have completely softened, the fruit is still very much present and all the classic Nebbiolo aromas and flavors—rose, cherries, tar, leather, savory slightly meaty. Just so good and just as good on day 2. This was a great find. 3 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (2) |

1/14/2021 - Mark1npt Likes this wine: 93 pointsClassic Nebbiolo for my first try......on the pnp the cork turned to dust and had to be extracted with care and in pieces and with a finer to prevent particles in the wine. Classic leather and rose petals on the nose, cherries on the palate with gentle spice notes. A waft of ether that changed to camphor over an hour. Chalky, dry mouthfeel with slight bricking to the color of this 20 yo wine. It remains consisten over 4-5 hours from decant til through the Jen/HMC tasting tonight. By the end of the glass a certain savory, smokiness emerged and was quite profound shoving the cherries to the background. Nice wine, would be even better with food. 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (4) |
