2017 Comm. G.B. Burlotto Barolo
A bit rough and rustic, harsh tannin. Nice fruit, not much extract and depth. Will it gain complexity over time? I don't know... 87-88

2016 Comm. G.B. Burlotto Barolo
Way more approachable than 2017. Good depth, beautiful fruit, good balance. Potential for 5+ years. Good Barolo. 90-91

Seems to me at its peak. Nice acidity and tannin, good grip and balance. Long. Drink now or within the next 5 years. 90

2015 Giuseppe Rinaldi Barolo Tre Tine
94 points
Wonderful fine tannin, lots of fine red fruit (Strawberry, raspberry, cherries), rose petals. Very deep and concentrated, almot oily texture, beautiful balance, very long and complex finish. Drinks beautiful now, but absolutely no need to hurry. 94+

Quite similar to the Tre Tine, just not the beautiful, clear fruit. Nevertheless a beautiful Barolo in a lovely spot right now. 93

2015 Comm. G.B. Burlotto Barolo Acclivi
Compared to the other 2015 Barolo, the Acclivi felt off. Bitter, harsh tannin, unbalanced structure. But with a lovely, clear fruit. Potenrial? 89-90

En par with the Tre Tine, for me the nose was a bit more fascinating and complex. Fine, silky tannin, great extract, fresh, deep, great clear fruit. Wonderful balance and elegance. Very long and complex. Great Barolo. 94-95

Hmm, I am sure, that I am describing the correct wine, but reading my notes for the Acclivi and Monvigliero it sounds like i have mixed them :)
Wonderful complex nose! Extremly fine tannin, great, clear sweet fruit. Beautiful balance and harmony. Very concentrated. Loong finish! Amazing! 95+

Compared to the Acclivi it lacks complexity. Tannin is a bit drying. Do I like it? I am confused... No rating.

Nose with a bit of barn and very floral. Also a bit dirty on the palate it is also very round and balanced with fine tannin and a wonderful length. 93

Chalky, cool and floral nose. On the palate very juicy, spicy and dense. Fine tannin, wonderful balance, great length. Need some more years to fully unfold. 93++

Somewhere between 2017 and 2015. Ok, but nothing special. 90

A bit boring and unbalanced compared to the other Barolo this night. 89-90

2012 Comm. G.B. Burlotto Barolo Monvigliero
Compared to the other great Barolo this night, the 2012 Monvigliero is certainly very good, but neither touching nor interesting. Solid, but boring. 90-91

Nose with some slight lovage. Palate fully developed with tertiary aromas. Tobacco, mellow tannin, very dense. A bit beyound its full peak, still very lovely. 91-92
