"This is an open and delicious Barolo that shows nutmeg, dried flower, tar, red plum and cherry fruit aromas. Full-bodied with firm, lightly chalky tannins supporting the fruit, leading into a focused and firm finish. Try from 2028."

"Lustrous mid ruby with orange tinges. Deep and a little tingling on the nose. Impressive concentration without seeming rich. Great depth on the palate while remaining strikingly elegant. Great balance and with polished tannins that build up on the finish. (WS)"

"This stunning San Rocco Barolo offers a mesmerizing array of dried rose petals, tar, ripe black cherry and licorice. The full-bodied palate is energetic and lively, with juicy blackberry, dark plum, espresso and vanilla. Firm tannins provide a solid foundation. Impressive now, but will benefit from aging. Drink 2028–2050.—J.P"
