The 2013 Barolo Gattera is sensual, open-knit and quite expressive. Red cherry, plum, mint, chocolate, leather and deeply spiced notes shape this radiant, supple Barolo from the Gattera vineyard in La Morra. The 2013 naturally needs time to soften, but it's only a matter of time before the wine's inviting personality is on full display. Scents of rose petal, chocolate, sweet red cherry and a dash of French oak add sweetness through to the finish. Naturally, the 2013 needs time to soften, but it is quite expressive, even today. (AG)
Cherry and plum flavors are wrapped in spicy oak here, with accents of tobacco and tar. Bright and polished, showing a sense of refinement and fine length. Best from 2021 through 2035. 500 cases made.
