Barolo Villero 2006 Boroli

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (92)

The 2006 Barolo Villero is aromatically quite pretty. Spiced, mentholated notes that are typical of this vineyard emerge over time leading to an expressive core of ripe red fruit framed by firm yet nicely integrated tannins. This mid-weight Barolo should drink well with a minimum of bottle age, but also seems to have the stuffing to support a number of years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2026.

Wow. Bellissimo naso, con fragole, fungo fresco e cenni di cedro. Corpo pieno, con tannini masticabili di medio peso e finale medio. Mi sarebbe piaciuto che avesse più materia al palato. Nondimeno, trovo che la qualità sia eccellente. Provatelo dopo il 2013.

Castiglione Falletto. Bright ruby with broad orange rim. Heady, sweet, multilayered dried fruit nose. Compact and sweet fruit palate. Obvious dried-fruit character but juicy too, and with ripe but powerful tannin.
