Score 91/100 · Drink 2023-2032, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Oct 2021
The 2017 Barolo is a pretty dense wine from proprietor Nicola Oberto. I am used to seeing a bit more finesse and transparency here, but the 2017 is quite a powerhouse. Large-grained tannins add to that impression. Time in the glass brings out hints of spice and tobacco, and yet the 2017 remains a bit rough around the edges.

La Morra. Tasted blind. Mid ruby with orange tinges. Peppery cherry fruit with the merest suggestion of dried fruit. Supple, fresh cherry fruit with bags of grainy tannins, well balanced and with very good length. Ready now. (WS)
