"Excellent aromas of licorice, dark fruits and dark chocolate with hints of stone. Full-bodied, with ultra-racy, fine tannins and a long and beautiful finish. A wine with very integrated tannins. Such beauty. Extremely well done. Better in a couple of years." (07/12) |
90 Pts Antonio Galloni - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate |
"The 2008 Barolo is a pretty, entry-level wine graced with exquisite finesse in its sweet red berries, flowers and spices. This is a classic La Morra Barolo with tons of early appeal. Floral notes add freshness on the refined finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2018." (04/12) |

Winery:
"From as early as 1200 AD, Nebbiolo grapes have been cultivated in the tiny hamlet of Annunziata (known in ancient times as Marcenasco), under the protective wing of the Romanesque beli tower that marks the earliest settlement of La Morra. And it is in Annunziata that Mauro Molino has two of his most prestigious Barolo crus: Vigna Conca, which once belonged to the Convent of Marcenasco, and Vigna Gancia, located just behind Mauro Molino's winery and ageing cellars. Also in the township of La Morra are the estate-owned vineyards Gallinotto (which produces Nebbiolo grapes for Barolo) and Gattere (where Barbera grapes are grown). Mauro Molino has additional vineyards in the townships of Barolo and Monforte far a total of approximately 10 hectares. Overall, the winery produces about 60,000 bottles per year." - Importer
