aurelio settimo rocche nebbiolo (barolo)

點擊次數(shù)：1781

Barolo Rocche scored considerably higher than Aurelio Settimo’s base Barolo this year and would make a wonderful addition to your cellar. This is a gorgeous wine with impressive intensity and penetrating aromas of balsam, chopped mint, forest berry, underbrush and white mushroom. It’s elegant and compact in the mouth with a long, firm finish. ——M.L.(12/1/2010)—— 93

Located in the La Morra fraction of the Barolo wine area, Aurelio Settimo is a small, boutique winery that started selling fruit in 1962. Eventually, the family decided to bottle its product and the results are spectacular. This fresh Barolo from the Rocche cru is bright and tonic with lively notes of berry, mesquite and cola.——M.L.(2/1/2010)—— 92

Artfully combines enormous power, complexity and finesse. Aromas and flavors include tar, roses, orange peel, cherries, anise, dried spices and earth, all in a rich, chewy wine that reveals the beginnings of elegance. Finishes long, with ripe tannins that need time to resolve. Try in 2015. ——J.C.(11/15/2004)—— 93
