Nebbiolo Wine

Vinous, 95 points: The 2013 Barolo Castelletto is another superb wine from Manzone. Beams of Castelletto tannin and bright acidity give the wine its super-distinctive feel. A wine of focus and drive, the Castelletto will appeal most to...

Vinous, 94 points: The 2013 Barbaresco Manzola is soft, succulent and inviting for a young Barbaresco. Mid-weight, gracious and supple, the 2013 speaks to balance above all else. High-toned aromatics meld into a core of sweet red cherry...

jamessuckling.com, 93 points: This is very ripe with a dried berry, almost raisin character and Asian mushroom undertone. Full body, chewy tannins and a long finish. Needs time to soften. Better in 2017.

Wine Spectator, 93 points: A muscular style, but not rustic, offering cherry, leather, eucalyptus and cigar box aromas and flavors. Balanced and expressive, with a fluid profile punctuated by dusty, well-integrated tannins. Best from 2022 through...

jamessuckling.com, 93 points: (92-93) A silky, refined wine with meat, cherry and flower character. Medium to full body, fresh acidity, berry flavors and a fresh finish. Very fine. Barrel sample.

Vinous, 96 points: In many ways, the gorgeous 2014 Barolo Lazzarito is the most surprising wine in the range. Once a stylistic outlier with a considerable French oak influence, today it is much closer to the other Barolos in terms of feel...

Jancis Robinson's Purple Pages, 93 points: More brick than ruby. Very ripe cherry fruit and yet still with a delicate floral layer. As firm as the Cerequio but seems finer grained, more refined in structure. Fresher on the finish too. Immense length and density. ...

jamessuckling.com, 94 points: This is fantastic with cedar, strawberry, walnut and mineral aromas and flavors. Ultra-fine tannins and a clean finish. Balanced and refined. Why wait? But will be even better in 2018.

Vinous, 96 points: The 2013 Barolo La Serra is superb. In fact, the 2013 is one of the most impressive young La Serras I have ever tasted from Roberto Voerzio because the tannins are much more polished than is typically the case here, where...

Vinous, 97 points: Another highlight in this range, the 2014 Barolo Ravera opens with the most exquisite, captivating aromatics imaginable. It will be interesting to see if it develops a bit more midpalate depth and pliancy. Today, the 2014...

Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: Fragrant and refined, this opens with alluring scents of iris, woodland berry, clove and balsamic whiffs of eucalyptus. On the focused, racy palate, youthfully austere but extremely elegant tannins and vibrant acidity...

Vinous, 94 points: (94+) La Spinetta fans won't want to miss the 2013 Barbaresco Vigneto Starderi, but readers will have to be patient, as the Starderi is going to need time. The only question is how much. Classic bright red fruit notes...

Wine Enthusiast, 95 points: This is a stunning wine with intense floral scents of iris, violet and rose layered with hints of mint and coffee. The palate is rich and vibrant, with a core of black cherry wrapped in cinnamon and spice. This is...

Vinous, 92 points: La Spinetta's 2011 Barbaresco Valeirano has come together beautifully over the last year. Deeply spiced and aromatic, the 2011 has begun to flesh out as the tannins have softened. Still, it is too soon for the Valeirano...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: Smoke tar freshly cut flowers new leather and licorice are some of the aromas and flavors that emerge from the 2007 Barolo Bric del Fiasc. The 2007 is an opulent explosive Bric del Fiasc that flows with marvelous density...
