Score 86/100 · Drink 2018-2023, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Mar 2016
The 2011 Barolo from Cascina Fontana is a pleasant, mid-weight wine, but the flavors are dried out, while the wine lacks freshness, structure and depth. Both bottles I tasted were quite forward, even within the context of the year.

From the Crus Villero and Valletti in Castiglione Falletto. Just mid ruby and already a little developed. Leafy cherry fruit with an earthy, savoury touch. Ripe, straightforward and accessible and with proper depth of fruit on the finish and a good bite of tannins. (WS)
