Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of dinner. I’m just going to cut to the chase: the 2021 Serraboella is absolutely stunning. The wine pours a beautiful ruby color with a brilliant, transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with gorgeous, concentrated notes of ripe red and dark fruit: Morello cherry, roses, talcum powder, dry earth and exotic Eastern spices. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. This is a sapid Barbaresco with a finish that lasts FOR-EV-ER. There is so much power and grace. So much balance. In such a special vintage, the Cigliuti sisters allowed their fruit from Serraboella to become a wine that is sure to become legendary. Drink now through 2061. — 6 days ago

Nice nose with some alcohol. Delicious flavors of cherry jam and nice tannins. I love ripasso-style wines and this was a good one. It may have been a little much with our eclectic ham and tamales Christmas dinner. But everyone loved. Thank you to Agnes M. for this nice gift. I’ll be buying more. — 3 years ago

Bevuto 2024. Assolutamente un'annata definitiva. Un tannino esplosivo, un acidità che resiste al tannino, una bella bellissima sapidità e una morbidezza ancora blanda, che diverta immensa.

Colore intenso e lucente porpora vivace. Profumo complesso! Frutta matura, Tamarindo e cola. terra sottobosco. Confetture. TARTUFO. FUNGHI. resine o corteccia leggera.  c’è una nota dolce forse una Spezia tipo cannella. il gusto è pieno di corpo. Tratti che ricordano la Croatina del campo del Monte. un pre finale velocissimo leggermente abboccato e poi amaro subito dopo.  L’alcol veicola profumi sensazioni e corpo. È perfettamente integrato nonostante i 15°. Una bella scorrevolezza. La parte migliore è certamente il bouquet olfattivo.  — 4 years ago

This is the standard Côte Rôtie from Agnes Levet that’s a blend of different parcels. However, the philosophy and approach remain the same as “La Chavaroche” and “Les Journaries”. In the past, this bottling was known as “Améthyste” and only recently became more widely available in the US. “Widely” is a relative word, lol.

Opened about an hour prior to service. The 2021 pours a deep garnet/purple with a transparent core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with a gorgeous bouquet all of the different varieties and colors of brambles your heart could possibly desire along with all of the seeds and stems, freshly cracked black pepper, dried herbs, some of the animale, purple flowers some hints of old wood and yes, perhaps a kiss of brettanomyces. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is forever long, drying and loaded with even more black pepper. This is giving me total 2014 vibes and if you liked that vintage in the Northern Rhône (as I did), you’re gonna absolutely love this. Drink now through 2036. — a day ago

Già più maturo rispetto a 2016 o 2015. La siccità è stata ben gestita, rimane ti incredibile bevinilitá e l'alcool 15,5 gestito ottimamente. — 2 years ago
