JANCIS ROBINSON 18 POINTS [A Cut Above Superior in Class] - "More spice and less leafy maturity than the Marcarini La Serra 2012 just tasted. Still with some red fruit on the nose. Bone, bone dry but the tannins are exceptionally fine and there's still a lot of fruit to balance. Terrific wine." - Julia Harding MW
ANTONIO GALLONI - VINOUS MEDIA 96 POINTS -"The 2012 Barolo Le Vigne, here in a library release, is still a very young wine. Bright acids lift a core of red fruit in a Barolo that impresses with its vibrancy. Spice, blood orange, mint, rose petal and lavender open with a bit of time in the glass. The 2012 showed quite a bit of potential as a young wine, now, that potential is really starting to come through. This is a terrific showing. "
WINE SPECTATOR 95 POINTS - "A hint of oak lends this a spicy component, along with cherry, licorice and tar flavors. Racy and bright, with fine intensity and a long, tightly wound finish that seems to go on forever. Shows beautiful purity and class..."
Enjoy now or until around 2035.
