Mid to low shoulder fill, seeping, cork soaked through. Didn't have high hopes. Oxidized

2020 Elio Grasso Langhe Nebbiolo Gavarini

Langhe DOC more

5/15/2024 - dcbell Likes this wine: 92 points

This is hugely appealing and treads that line between being very easy to enjoy yet also a ‘serious’ wine perfectly. Intense nose of cherry drops, redcurrant, blueberry, earth, a little woodsmoke and menthol. Quite fleet of foot, with tonnes of acidity and a reasonable amount of tannin, though perfectly enjoyable without food. Platonic ideal of langhe nebbiolo for me: lots of character, intensity, and true to the grape but also super easy to enjoy young.

Not a bad wine, but I feel like it is a little too old. There is not much fruit, and that which exists is like a soft cherry. The tannins are there, but have mellowed - not a bad thing since Barolo's tannins can be overwhelming at times- but they kind of fade out so that there is not a long finish. Decent acidity remains. If you have a bottle in your cellar, don't wait.

1974 Cascina La Francia Giachino Teresio Barolo

Very mature nose showing dark bitter chocolate, cherry stones and blood iron in a nice and pleasant way. Pleasant bitterness on the palate focused on tertiary notes with fully evolved tannins, but opens up with a pleasant fruitful sweetness and some dried hip roses on the lengthy finish.

Langhe DOC more

5/15/2024 - empty_sad_bottle Likes this wine: 91 points

Decanted for 2 hours, served in a Spiegelau Definition Burgundy Glass. Translucent ruby colour.

Nose: Pomegranate, strawberry and lingonberry at first, notes of rhubarb come through afterwards. Dried cranberry, roses, liquorice and wet stone come through as well. Towards the end, the wine shows forest floor, tar and herbs.

Palate: Tart cherry and strawberry at first, savoury herbs come through later. Very fresh acidity and grippy, structured tannins. Herbs, dried cherry and forest floor on the finish.

Bolognese’s note below is spot-on. I would add only that this wine has a wonderful texture even at only 8 yrs past vintage. It was a great find on a Milan restaurant wine list.

Definitely much more approachable than I'm used to. Drinks more like a ripe Langhe than Barolo. The price point reflects this. Not a bad quaff however.

1964 Giacomo Borgogno & Figli Barolo Riserva

Nebbiolo more

5/3/2024 - Jd6725 Likes this wine: 95 points

A bit different than my last bottle 4 years ago. That was tight as nails and bigger and meatier. This one had a lot of that structure but softened in a good way over a 2 hour decant. Lighter fruited like most Barolo's of this age. Even though very different than the last bottle, I liked this equally. Red capsule, original release.

Pale red brown
P&P then 2 hours in the glass. develops gradually. requires few hours of decanting.
med aromas intensity of mature delicate red cherries and strawberries, earth and oak-vanilla notes, cigar-box, roses, truffles and acetone hints.
dry, high acidity, firm delicate tannins, 14% abv, med-light body, fine & delicate complexity, medium length finish, tannic aftertaste.
can drink now - suitable for additional 3-6 years of aging.
10 years after a challenging vintage this Barolo is quite enjoyable vs. the expectations.

5/15/2024 - Ed B Likes this wine: 91 points

Decanted through a strainer because the cork broke. Flat at first — I feared it was past peak — but it quickly opened up and morphed as I drank it over the next two hours. Nice blend of mostly red berries, with dark fruit hints, and some licorice on a long finish. Greatly exceeded expectations.

Off the charts good. I brought this a a pirate bottle to a Monprivato & ca d'Morissio vertical dinner and it came out as #2 WOTN (just behind 96 CdM), handily beating out a lot of CdM bottlings. A "Wow" bottle

For my palate the best of the 06/08/10 CdM bottling by quite a margin. Bested perhaps only by the CdM 96.

One of the stronger "normale" vintages here, but I having tasted 78/96/99/00/01/06/07/08/10/11/12 and CdM 96/06/08/10 alongside each other, I would argue there are no truly great Monprivato bottlings.

This was nice. Yes, tannins, but a big expressive nose on open. Rich, mouth filling fruit and a very long finish. Very nice now, but will leave other bottles resting for a while.

Pale garnet in the glass. With some decant this opens up abit, but the wine is definitely not overly complex (which was slightly underwhelming) - notes of crunchy cherry, raspberry, damp carpet, violets. Good fruit offering on the palate, but structurally the wine feels somewhat thin, where the acidity and tannins lag behind the fruit and alcohol. Medium finish.

Another strong performance. Very open licorice, mint. Earth, slightly stewed plums. Floral nose. Slight tar.
Color turning more brown but think this can still go another 5 years at least. Drink them now as it was great.
