Pecchenino

Fresh ruby red with violet reflections. Refined scent of rose petals, roasted herbs, elderberry and small red berries. In the taste fleshy-drinking after fruit compote, the tannin very fresh and smooth. Long aftertaste with great Italian personality. SUPERIORE.DE

"Jammy mulberry, spice and old leather. Blackberry and mulberry flavour density balances the firm, chalky tannins. Medium-long, with a sweet sense to the finish." Jancis Robinson

Elegant and complex Siri d'Jermu with a remarkable concentration, ripe strawberry aromas and light toasty notes on the nose. Fine-grained tannin, in the finish a fresh, clean fruit with hints of hazelnut. A big, muscular Dolcetto and archetype of its noble denomination! SUPERIORE.DE

"Dusty, mulberry with some yoghurt tones. Juicy blackberry, damson and dried-herb palate, fine well-handled tannins. Medium-long to long. Very drinkable, which can be a challenge with Dolcetto." Jancis Robinson

"Pretty flavors of ripe pomegranate, blackberry and violet are the hallmarks of this supple Dolcetto. Firm, yet stays balanced in the end." Wine Spectator

"Lovely, grapey fruit with black-cherry and orange-zest character. Medium body. Firm tannins." James Suckling

"Unctuous and rich, the 2017 Dogliani Superiore Sirì d'Jermu hits the palate with an exotic array of crème de cassis, lavender, mint and sweet spices. Even with all of its flamboyance, the 2017 remains a mid-weight wine with terrific energy and focus." Vinous

Dogliani Bricco Botti is dark and powerful. Wonderfully complex aromas of dark fruit, tobacco, leather, liquorice, tar, mint and flowers. Harmoniously round and perfect in taste. A Dolcetto of the extra class! SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2016 Dogliani Superiore Bricco Botti represents one of the most profound and sophisticated expressions of this popular Piedmont grape variety. The Dogliani appellation is specifically recognized for the purity and authenticity of those dark berry flavors and the bright acidity that is associated with Dolcetto. This cool-vintage wine is sharp, focused and bright with loads of primary fruit. However, there is enough softness and meat here to soften the mouthfeel. This is textbook Dogliani, and worthy of a brasato al Barolo, although you'll be forgiven if you want to marinate the beef in a more economical red." Robert Parker

"A linear and compressed red with lots of blue-fruit and slate undertones to the firm tannins. Full body. Tight and racy. From dolcetto and always excellent." James Suckling

"The 2016 Dogliani Superiore Bricco Botti is a powerful, brooding wine. Smoke, leather, licorice, game, incense and wild black cherry add to an impression of gravitas and virile power in this potent Dogliani. The tannins could use a bit of time to soften, but there is no shortage of personality or character here - that much is certain. The 2016 takes Dolcetto into another level of expression and dimension." Vinous

Dark garnet red with beautiful reflections. Aromas of cherry, strawberry, eucalyptus, tobacco and spices. A wonderfully balanced wine of fruit, fine acidity and polished tannin. For us one of the best representatives of its vintage! SUPERIORE.DE

Warm garnet red. In the bouquet cherry, rosewood and some tar. Thoroughly powerful, masculine Barolo with a cornucopia of fruit, robust tannins and a very lively finish. Needs another 5-8 years until the beginning of optimal drinking maturity. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of dark truffles, dried strawberries and rose stems following through to a full body with round and chewy tannins. A rich finish. This is very structured and tannic." James Suckling

Barolo Bussia of Pecchenino is a great, rich wine. Full bouquet of dark fruits, spices, tar, smoke and forest soil. Strong on the palate with lots of berry fruit, beautiful inner sweetness and considerable acidity, classic tannins and a rich finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Purity of fruit comes through with a plum, porcini and rose-petal character, which follow through to a medium to full body. A round and juicy finish. Delicious now, but will age nicely in the future." James Suckling

Full bouquet of dark fruits, spices, tar, smoke and wild mushrooms. Powerful on the palate with lots of berry fruit, beautiful inner sweetness and remarkable acid wire, classic tannins and a rich, long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Very bright red-flower aromas with fresh notes of orange zest and chamomile. The palate has a succulent, bright and juicy core of bright red-cherry flavor, fine and succulent tannins and a pure, fresh finish." James Suckling

"The 2015 Barolo Bussia offers a deeper level of identity, grit and structure compared to the estate's Barolo from San Giusepppe. This wine reveals a tight inner core of fruit with lovely contours of spice, leather, tar, licorice and dried violets. You get a clean sense of the grape without too many bells or whistles. The finish is elegant and fine. Pair it with an authentic tajarin and white truffle shavings." Robert Parker

"A sleek red, displaying cherry, strawberry, floral, earth and tobacco flavors. Starts out with a fleshy feel, firming up as this winds down on the finish. Balanced and refreshing, lingering with earth, tobacco and spice notes in the end." Wine Spectator
