2013 Brovia Villero Barolo

96 points Kerin O'Keefe - "Fragrant and full bodied, this textbook Barolo opens with quintessential Nebbiolo aromas of red cherry, rose petal, new leather, dark spice and a balsamic note of menthol. It's still young and taut but already shows great breeding and class, offering Marasca cherry, cranberry, licorice and clove set against a backbone of assertive but refined tannins and bright acidity. Drink 2025–2043."

96+ points Antonio Galloni - "the 2013 Barolo Villero is magnificent - Drink 2022–2044."

17+ Jancis Robinson - "Castiglione Falletto. Tasted blind. Youthful crimson. Peculiar but compelling nose of camphor, brooding cherry, strawberry and exotic spice with a smoky touch. A little rich and very young but not heavy. The rich, coating tannins on the finish are the perfect match for the fruit." (WS) Drink 2020-2040
