2 Bottle each of:
2017 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione - Wine Advocate 96 points; Jeb Dunnock 96 points; Vinous 96 points
Ruby-red colour. Complex and elegant nose. Notes of mandarin and ripe red fruit, rose petals with hints of chamomile. On the palate it is fresh, well- balanced, silky, mouth-filling and rounded. Big well-integrated tannins. Long and persistent finish. Best decanted a few hours before serving.
2017 Barolo Brunate - Wine Advocate 95 points; Jeb Dunnock 96 points; Vinous 94 points
Intense ruby-red colour. Explosive, powerful and generous nose. Fruity notes of plum, citron and grapefruit, along with spicy overtones. In the glass it gradually shows violet aromas, very typical of the Brunate vineyard. Full and intense on the palate. The tannins are soft, round and velvety, distinctive of the La Morra terroir. Licorice root noticeable on the finish.
2017 Barolo Lazzarito - Wine Advocate 94 points; Jeb Dunnock 97 points; Vinous 95 points
Intense ruby-red colour with garnet hues. The nose is alluring and profound. Notes of hay, cut grass, tobacco, white pepper and wild mint emerge. On the palate, it is robust and potent, with a taut, mineral finish. As is typical of Serralunga, the tannins are stark, sharp and very profound. The sweet persistence of the finish is delightful.
