The 2017 Barolo Cicala is a powerful, deep wine. Black cherry, menthol, tobacco, scorched earth, chocolate and searing tannins are some of the signatures.

I would prefer to drink this over the next decade, but readers need to expect that the balance is not ideal.Inc. TAX€1,001.58 -

The 2017 Barolo Colonello is heady, exuberant and super-expressive. Wild cherry, tobacco, cedar, incense and blood orange all race out of the glass. There is something exotic about the Colonello that I find quite alluring. This racy Barolo captures the exuberance of the year, but is not at all overdone. Early signs of maturity in the aromatics and flavors suggest it is a wine for near and medium-term drinking.Inc. TAX€975.18 -

The 2017 Barolo Romirasco is a very pretty and satisfying Barolo. Bright red-toned fruit, mint, blood orange, cinnamon and rose petal give this mid-weight Barolo a good deal of freshness.

The late Aldo Conterno was a winemaker after the heart of many a Barolo-lover. At once modernist and traditionalist his ethos was driven by substance and classicism rather than fashion or fads.
When many other producers were starting to mature their wines in small oak barriques,...
