About this wine

This Riserva is produced from the Fossati and Case Nere parcels and held a decade in barrel and bottle before release. The 2008 shows evolved garnet colour and a haunting bouquet of dried rose petals, violets, black cherries, strawberries, chocolate and sandalwood. The palate is full but incredibly silky, with resolved tannins and a long, savoury, floral finish. It’s a collector Barolo that demonstrates the transformative power of long ageing.

Tasting Note

James Suckling notes dried rose, violet and black-cherry aromas with strawberries, full body and round silky tannins, calling it “fantastic".

In the glass

Brick-tinged garnet with a transparent rim.

In the nose

Dried roses, violets, black cherry, strawberry, chocolate and sandalwood.

On the palate

Full but weightless, ultra-fine tannins, savoury depth and a very long, perfumed finish.

Roberto Voerzio

Roberto Voerzio is one of Barolo’s most influential modernists, famed for extreme low yields and meticulous vineyard work. The wines are intensely concentrated yet surprisingly refined, with glossy fruit, fine-grained tannins and impressive purity. His Baroli from crus like Brunate, La Serra and Rocche dell’Annunziata have become cult references for opulent, collectible Nebbiolo.
