February 10, 2022 - Pop and pour...
Smokey cherry and slight orange color [4]
Cherry and red fruits on the nose [13]
Medium boldness and tannins, earthy (peat moss), some legs but virtually no sweetness or hotness, but certainly acidic [17]
Pomegranate and spices...subtle mint and rose petals, with a dry finish [6]
4-13-17-7 [91]
By end of first glass...fruit flavor softened and dryness more pronounced.
I decanted three test of the bottle and ir opened up with a smoother finish. I increased my rating to 91. -

August 16, 2021 - This excellent Barolo from the cru of Castelleto is really open for business. The bouquet has a mix of cherries and blueberries, rose pedals, some herbs, almost some pepper and some slight heat indicating the 15% alcohol. The wine is full bodied with some inner sweetness and quite a long finish, the tannins are holding everything in check and balanced. I would guess it can easily stay at this level for another decade or more.

Barolo Freak Does not like this wine: 85 points
November 25, 2020 - Unlike previous Seghesio's that I have tasted, this one did not work for me. The 2010 has the strong flavor of graphite, and not much fruit. Some fan's of Seghesio will like this vintage, but it did not work for me.

January 21, 2018 - In the bouquet herbs, licorice and chocolate. On the palate good and juicy acidity and round tannin.

Beautiful brick, somewhat floral noise, forward tannins and satisfying acidity
