2017 Guido Porro Barolo Vigna Rionda

"Six miles north of Benevelli, Guido Porro has been laser-focused on the slice of Barolo called Serralunga d’Alba for decades. A few years ago, Guido seized an opportunity to farm a tiny sliver of Serralunga’s historic Vigna Rionda vineyard. He paid dearly for half an hectare of what is the Romanée-Conti of Serralunga, and his rendition of this hallowed site is worth every cent. His other Baroli are outstanding. This one is a masterpiece you will want to enjoy at several stages throughout its decades-long life." - Tom Wolf, Kermit Lynch

2017 Uccelliera Brunello

"This is a gorgeous deep ruby to garnet color. Amazingly complex nose! Savory herbs, red cherry, mushrooms and fennel are intricately woven. Drop dead gorgeous on the palate. Wow! Fresh, juicy and so well balanced. One of the best from the vintage that I’ve tasted. Huge cherry, porcini, tobacco and soft vanilla notes are excellent and persistent. A masterpiece."

"Balsam herbs, cocoa and sweet white smoke give way to crushed black cherry and plum as the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino blossoms in the glass. This is elegance personified, silky, deep and round, yet delivering a core of saline minerality that creates a savory sensation - umami, in a way - with masses of ripe red fruits and confectionary spices to contrast. The tannins are sweet and round, presenting a chiseled structure; yet it's not forceful. This tapers off with a tart twang of sour wild berries under an air of lavender and violets. Wow; there is so much concentration and depth here, but also balance. In fact, there's hardly a sign of this being from a difficult vintage. While I expect it will have a shorter life than an Uccelliera Brunello from a classic year, the 2017 should not be missed."

"The Uccelliera 2017 Brunello di Montalcino does a great job showcasing that extra power and brawn of the vintage and the richer textural structure of the southern side of the appellation. The bouquet is up front and beautifully measured with lots of red and purple fruit definition followed by spice, tar and earthiness. What sets this wine apart in this hot and dry vintage is the mouthfeel. It delivers fiber, flesh and soft tannins."

2018 Manzone Barolo Castelletto

"The 2018 Barolo Castelletto is another compelling wine in this range from Manzone. It exudes vertical intensity, not to mention tons of character, right out of the gate. Sweet red/purplish fruit, rose petal, dried herbs lavender, spice and orange zest are some of the many aromas and flavors that emerge gradually over time. Bright Castelletto acids and vibrant tannins round things out nicely. This heady, explosive Barolo has so much going on."

95 Points - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media, September 2022
