This is an open and delicious Barolo that shows nutmeg, dried flower, tar, red plum and cherry fruit aromas. Full-bodied with firm, lightly chalky tannins supporting the fruit, leading into a focused and firm finish. Try from 2028. Fleshy and focused with notes of licorice, spice and dark fruits. Cherry, currant, and blueberry melt harmoniously together on the palate.

This is expressive, featuring cherry, plum, earth and eucalyptus flavors. Assertive tannins are present yet meld nicely with all of the elements. Shows fine balance and a precision finish. Best from 2028 through 2045. 630 cases made, 210 cases imported.

This stunning San Rocco Barolo offers a mesmerizing array of dried rose petals, tar, ripe black cherry, and licorice. The full-bodied palate is energetic and lively, with juicy blackberry, dark plum, espresso, and vanilla. Firm tannins provide a solid foundation. Impressive now, but will benefit from aging. Drink 2028-2050.
