Wine needs time to open up. With time it offers a delicate bouquet of cherries, cardamom and some almost citrusy fragrance. On the palate quite structured with a good tannic backbone. For 2007 it's quite backward offering a lot of classic Monforte characteristics. Overall good PQR.

- It's in total harmony with a full body. Bright texture with a long finish - Well matured Nebbiolo. Nose and mouth of rape green vegetables, lakrits, and roses.

Drinking very nicely. Starting to integrate with good balance of fruit and tannins. Good hearty food wine.

Vibrant nose of red fruit and chocolate, with high acidity. Somewhat simple. Acidic in the mouth, finished with strong, but fine, tannins.

Piemonte @ Vinitaly (Verona): A softer more delicate wine than the le coste but beautiful in its aromatics. Textbook barolo in many ways. Recommended
