Moccagatta Riserva Barbaresco Nebbiolo 1996

Pretty similar colour . On the nose a little more herbal and a little less intensity than the Ovello , with some sous bois and sea side hints . On the palate this is slightly more reserved and less tannic , little less rustic , a little more elegant perhaps . Touch of mint on the finish . Ok length . This is a little simpler than the Ovello overall, and will probably need drinking sooner . Drink now and over the next 5 or so years — 20 days ago

Basarin Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2011

Mid crimson with a tawny rim. A porty nose - overdeveloped but not over the top. Coffee grounds, earthy, chocolatey. Aged in Barriques rather than traditional large oak casks. A full bodied Barbaresco. One of the 1001 Wines - I bought this at a wine shop in Alba in October 2015. Sanderson suggested a window to 2029 (he tasted 3/15). On this tasting it needs to be drunk. — 3 months ago

Perhaps not the best bottle @Bob McDonald ?

@Andrew Cullimore Some of these Italian wine shops are not temperature controlled, even the ones with better quality stock. It’s been in temperature controlled conditions in my cellar for the past nearly 10 years.

Rabaja Barbaresco Nebbiolo 1979

Moccagatta actually. Birth year wine and the wife and I have a challenging year. The bottle open at at first it seemed DOA, but 10 minutes in the glass and it's beauty showed. — 8 years ago

Cole Barbaresco 2016

One of the more muscular Barbaresco I’ve tasted. Notes of plum, red cherry, tar, orange peel, espresso, clove, and worn leather. Big frame. Concentrated and opulent on the palate. Firm tannins just start to soften. Still need time, but it will be great.
