Perfectly mature and so nice. So much spice, mahogany furniture, 19th Century first editions, and complexity in the perfume. Still a fair amount of relaxed, spiced cherry fruit on the palate, with interesting leather notes. Tannins resolved, decent acids. It’s 15% listed alcohol, but it’s not poking out. — 2 months ago

La collina di dioniso, Fabio Oberto dolcetto d'alba 2016

Plum, dried plums, cherry, leather, a bit of graphite too. The nose is very inviting. The palate is well made with a great acid backbone, light, drying tannins, cherry notes, a soft mouthfeel and a long fruity finish that calls for another sip. Great dolcetto. — 3 years ago

The 2017 Barolo is a pretty dense wine from proprietor Nicola Oberto. I am used to seeing a bit more finesse and transparency here, but the 2017 is quite a powerhouse. Large-grained tannins add to that impression. Time in the glass brings out hints of spice and tobacco, and yet the 2017 remains a bit rough around the edges. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, October 2021)
