Robert Parker (96)

The Luciano Sandrone 2020 Barolo Aleste (with 10,000 bottles released) is layered with sweet earth and drunken cherry. It shows seamless integration and a crescendo of intensity that starts with ripe fruit and dovetails into oak elements, licorice, spice and balanced acidity. This wine is very beautiful in terms of mouthfeel, with length and complexity. Aleste is made with fruit from Cannubi Boschis in the village of Barolo. This is the full monty.

This red shows breadth to its cherry, plum, tar, eucalyptus and sweet spice flavors, with an accent of licorice. Walks a tightrope between power and elegance, with a well-integrated structure, refined tannins and a racy, resonant finish. Best from 2028 through 2048.

James Suckling (97)

Cherry and hibiscus aromas with hints of tar and dried flowers such as roses. Full-bodied and layered, with lots of juicy and rich fruit showing the warmth of the vintage, yet it’s framed with creamy and chewy tannins that give it form and intensity. A very serious and structured 2020. Drink after 2030.

Barolo – Cannubi Boschis.
Lustrous mid ruby. Gorgeous perfumed nose with a hint of oak. Right now a tiny bit reduced but that blows off with aeration. Long, succulent and perfumed fruit with bags of fine, chewy tannins that make their mark while not overpowering the fruit. Needs time, even if right now it is hard to resist. (WS)
