"Sattes, leuchtendes Rubinrot mit leicht aufhellendem Kern. Nicht ganz präzise Nase nach roten Beeren, leicht nach Kirschen und Waldfrüchten. Im ersten Bereich fein und harmonisch, weitet sich dann prompt aus, ist aber ein wenig zu viel vom Holzeinsatz geprägt und trocknet im Finale aus."

"Elio Altare is among the most important producers of the La Morra area of Barolo and this non-cru wine shows his talents. There are smoky notes of roasted hazelnut and chocolate that frame lively aromas of cassis and red currants.

"Dense and chocolaty, yet also imbued with airy scents of red berries, this is a finely tuned wine worthy of attention despite not being a cru. Tar and cherries take charge on the palate, picking up nuances of treebark, leather and citrus, before ending with velvety tannins. Drink now?2015."
