2017 Monchiero Rocche di Castiglione Barolo
Tre Bicchieri - Gambero Rosso
95+ Points, Gary Walsh – Tip Top Tipple, “All the Rocche perfume – floral with raspberry, cinnamon perhaps, a slight smokiness and earthy character. Succulence of red fruits, rosy mouth-perfume, stony feel to tannin, an almond sweetness, and pleasing grip on a very long finish. All the character of the vineyard here, in a vibrant and clean framework. They’ve delivered a beautiful wine in 2017.” Drink 2022-2037
96 Points, Stephen Blandford – The Real Review, “Bright ruby colour. Fragrant raspberry and just ripe plum aromas, dried flowers, bouquet garni and fennel with a discreet coating of vanilla/mocha oak. In the mouth it is sleek and elegant with juicy berry fruit, blood orange tang, warm spice and a fan of filigree tannin leading to a gently lingering finish. So, so good.” Drink 2024-2039
17/20++ Jancis Robinson – “Castiglione Falletto. Just mid ruby. Very pure and enticing. Minerally crushed fresh red fruit with top notes of oatmeal. Tightly packed crushed red fruit and cranberry fruit palate with finely ground, powdery tannins. Very long focused red fruit. Youthful austerity.” (WS)
