2018 Barolo del Commune di La Morra Trediberri

Let, lys og luftig, klassevin til tilbudsprisen. Mere mørk, mineralsk og lakridset, end jeg husker den. Giv den luft, så kommer et delikat mylder af nuancer frem; viol, medicinskab, kirsebærsten og jord. Ren, frisk og mostet med magtfulde klem fra søde tanniner.

A lithe red, exuding fresh cherry and strawberry fruit, rose petal and mineral flavors. Showcases airy texture and lightness that add to its finesse, while a fine line of tannins underneath provide structure without any edges. Displays beautiful harmony and length. Best from 2024 through 2042.

A pleasant Barolo with red fruit, some water melon and a hint of nutty vanilla. Medium-bodied with firm tannins and a tight finish. Give it a year or two for the tannins to soften.

The 2018 Barolo del Comune di La Morra is absolutely gorgeous. Bright and translucent yet with remarkable depth for the year, the 2018 is terrific. Proprietor Nicola Oberto decided not to bottle his flagship Barolo from Rocche dell'Annunziata and used the fruit to bolster his straight Barolo bottling, a decision that was spot on. Sweet red cherry, orange peel, cinnamon, tobacco and dried leaves are all very nicely lifted in this ethereal, nuanced Barolo. The 2018 is simply exquisite. Readers will have a hard time finding a better example of the year at this level.

The 2018 Trediberri Barolo del comune di La Morra has attractive faded rose and ripe strawberry aromas with a very gentle hug of vanilla and cream. On standing the aromas become more perfumed. This wine has a very nice texture, weight and harmony on the palate and the tannins are better integrated than on the 2017 version of this wine. This is all balanced by tangy, refreshing acidity, strawberries-warmed-in-the-sun flavors, attractive, chalky-textured tannins and a lingering, savory finish. Drink from 2023 to 2040.

Medium red. Expressive aromas and flavours of red cherry, tobacco, mocha and underbrush. Silky-smooth and nicely concentrated, this is a beautiful expression of La Morra. Finishes long, with lift and some weight.
