Medium ruby centre with wide light garnet rim . This is a bit less fruit driven than I remember the last time I had this , 3 years ago or so . Nice spiced red cherry , blackcurrant , porcini , dried spices, touch smoky , dried rose and a balsamic hint . On the palate sweet red cherry , balsamic tinged blackberry , herbal and smoked black tea notes . This has very fine , velvety sweet tannins , and still quite good acidity , just balanced alcohol, I would drink this on the cooler side . The finish is medium length and with a spiced , liquorice note . This is firmly in its prime drinking window , showing some development whilst maintaining good density and ripe fruit on the palate . Drink now and over the next 5 -8 years or so . Not the most complex Cascina Francia , but incredibly enjoyable to drink now . — 18 days ago

Reddish in color with medium intensity.

Strong fruity nose and medium in body, with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with cherries, currants, light wood, tobacco leaf, herbs, peppercorn, chocolates and earth.

Medium finish with grippy tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a very young Barolo from Piedmont. Elegant and powerful.

This Single Vineyard Nebbiolo is already drinking very nicely, and better with food.

A good quality wine that will continue to age nicely in the next 15 years.

100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged in large oak barrels for 32 months.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Utterly magnificent.. stunningly good and near perfect. Hits all my buttons and is my favorite wine. Let decant about 90 minutes. Smooth as silk. Bursting fruit mixed beautifully with forest and truffle like earthiness. — 12 days ago

昔、ずいぶん綺麗で良かったのだが、最後に飲んだのが、ボリューム感が強くなって、それ以来ご無沙汰。調べてみたら2018で、どちらかと言うと雨の多いしんどい年だったようなんだけど、なんでだろ…

まぁそれはともかく久しぶりに飲んだこちらは、初めて飲んだ時のいいイメージが帰ってきて、素晴らしい出来。
赤い花系の華やかさ、チャーミングな酸とタンニン、すごく良い感じにまとまっている。

プチバローロ ではなく、ランゲネッビオーロとしての独自性を有している。

ペアリング的には鰹ではなく、鰯のトマト煮にピッタリ。
多分、赤身の魚ではなく、青魚が良いんだと思う。 — 2 months ago

Love it when older bottles don’t disappoint. Not the 64 Monfortino, for sure, but not a slacker. — 2 months ago

This No Name Nebbiolo needs no introduction. Fruity and earthy with lovely acidity makes for nice pairing with Rao’s wonderful pasta dishes. Delicious and easy drinking. — a month ago

The color of weak coffee with some bottle of the bottom gunk. Va on the nose and light notes of roses and dried fruit. On the palate very pure and lifted. Obviously aged but softening with air and bright and pretty. What a surprise given it’s a centurion. — a month ago

Ruby in color with medium intensity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing red and black fruits with light wood, spices, coffee, herbs, dark chocolates, tobacco leaf, peppercorn and earth.

Long finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

Easy drinking with a beautiful nose.

Young and needs a few years to mature properly, but already drinking nicely.
