    December 31, 2023 - Fantastic Barolo. Cherry, earth, great length. Still good tannins and acidity, but amazing to drink now

    September 23, 2023 - This pretty Barolo somehow got lost in a lineup of stellar wines.
    No formal TN but it was showing nicely and still lots in the tank.

    September 13, 2023 - From magnum. Popped and let sit 2 hours in the bottle, then decanted for 30min. Drank over the following 2 hours. Incredible nose of cherries and berries with a slight hint of smoke. Full bodied with just the right amount of fruit. Elegant on the back end with a long finish. Wonderfully aged Barolo

  • O'Meara Likes this wine:

    August 17, 2023 - Consistent note from my previous tasting. Really great stuff. I really like the balance from Monforte baroli: deep Nebbiolo flavors and tannins with more oomph than its western neighbors but more approachable than a Serralunga. Not tertiary yet, but I bet in a couple of years, this will be like velvet with some of those wonderful, aged Nebbiolo characteristics. No rush, but no fear in opening now. Drink with an hour or two of air or hold.

  • O'Meara Likes this wine:

    June 9, 2023 - Great bottle. Still has some nice Monforte structure, and all of the lovely aromatics to boot. This is about as great an example of a Bussia village level wine as you can get. Really nice from the cork pull. Slightest hint of pinkish orange on the rim. Scents roses, orange peel, cherries, and a faint hint tar. Flavors mirror the bouquet with a 30+ second finish. Bravissimo!
