This base Barolo from Bel Colle opens with slightly muddled aromas of cured ham, ripe fruit and exotic spice. It scored the same as this estate’s 2007 Barbaresco Roncaglie although the finish is perhaps more elegant and refined on this wine.

This is a very impressive Riserva that shows personality and longevity. Tar, asphalt and licorice notes are enhanced by delicate tones of balsam, cola and candied orange peel. In the mouth, this Barolo is a real charmer: the fullness and long persistency will win you over. Drink after 2015.

This bright Barbaresco aged in oak and chestnut barrel shows focused aromas of cherry, wild berry and white almond backed by spice and leather. The intensity of the aromas is not huge, but the wine is compact and neatly focused overall. Drink it with pheasant or game hen.

Here’s a very beautiful Barolo with elegant aromas of dried rose petal and pressed violets backed by more hefty aromas of prune, plum and sweet spice. A firm tannic backbone holds up the wine’s velvety texture and rich concentration.

Perfumed aromas of incense and scented candle emerge from the nose of this garnet-colored Roero. Tight tannins and bright acidity close the deal.
