Drank this for a week to see whether we should buy any more of this Wine Spectator 93 point wine from Costco at $30. It did improve near the end, shifting from see through red and astringently grippy tannin, gaining in fruit, roundness, and general tastiness while remaining firm and dry. This is less than we expected for a 6 year old Barolo. Generally, we already possess Nebbiolos for less that are better than the Sordo, including the Cancello Reserve Barbaresco and Barolo from Costco that get much better than the Sordo with 5 to 10 years of storage.

Medium red color. Hints of blueberry and dark toast.

Barolo with good power but lacking the finesse that should accompany the wines from this region. Good for drinking but not for enjoyment

Cheap at Costco
Low oak and pretty
Not terribly complex but makes up for it in classic hallmark southern Barolo flavour
