Vinous Antonio Galloni - 15 Dec 25
The 2008 Barolo Monprivato (magnum) remains a wine of total finesse. Deeply pitched aromatics give the 2008 its decidedly exotic flair. Blood orange, mint, hard candy and bright red-toned fruit all play in that same register, showing striking inner sweetness and tons of sheer allure. The 2008 has always been captivating. It is all that and more on this evening.

Lovely stuff already mature enough to provide sweet autumnal pleasure yet so hauntingly Barolo. Leaf mould and nuance. Yes please. (JR)
