Score 87/100 · Drink 2018-2025, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Jun 2018
The 2014 Barolo sets off with some ripe and soft aromas that come as a surprise given the cool growing season. The 2014 vintage saw heat in the week leading up to harvest, and that last-minute heat wave has done a lot to shape this Barolo. Dried cherry and cassis segue to wild rose, tar and grilled anise seed. The mouthfeel is watery and lean.

Barolo. Bottled in July 2017. Tasted blind. Maturing ruby with a watery orange rim. Ripe and open nose of cherry jam. Quite tight on the palate with tangy red fruit and coating tannins. Reluctant to come out and a little numb on the finish. Just needs time? (WS)
