Vietti

Dolcetto d'Alba Tre Vigne ist ein trockener und gut ausbalancierter Wein mit schönem Potenzial. Satt Rubinrot mit violettem Einschlag besticht er mit einer angenehmen, leicht bitteren Mandelnote und ist ein profunder Vertreter seiner Herkunft und der beliebten Rebsorte. SUPERIORE.DE

Die Trauben für den jedes Jahr beeindruckenden Barbera d'Alba Tre Vigne stammen überwiegend von Weinbergen in Castiglione Falletto, ein kleiner Teil der Früchte kommt aus Ravera. Schwarzkirsche, Pflaume, Schokolade, Leder, Lakritze, Gewürze und Menthol werden hier in einem berauschenden, exotisch reifen Tropfen präsentiert, der bereits in jungen Jahren sehr viel Freude bereitet. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2018 Barbera d'Alba Tre Vigne is fabulous. Bold, juicy and racy, the 2018 delivers superb quality for the money. Ripe black cherry, plum, mocha, spice and licorice all flesh out in this supremely delicious Barbera from Vietti." Vinous

"This is the most accessible of the five expressions of Barbera (from both Alba and Asti) made by Vietti. The 2018 Barbera d'Alba Tre Vigne opens to dark cherry and blackberry with good textural richness at the back. There is a lot of fruit fiber and support here to counter the abundant blackberry and cherry flavors that are so characteristic of this grape." Robert Parker

Perbacco zeigt im frischen Bouquet erst leicht blättrige Noten, danach viel Kirsche. Am Gaumen schön rund, viel reife Frucht, nach Kirschen und roten Beeren, unterlegt von feinkörnigem Tannin, langer Nachhall. SUPERIORE.DE

Die Trauben für diesen sehr traditionellen piemonteser Rotwein kommen von ausgesuchten Weinbergslagen auf den Hügeln des Langhe-Gebiets. Das Besondere bei der Weinbereitung: Ein kleiner Teil der Maische wird unvergoren eingefroren. Die alkoholische Gärung im Edelstahltank dauert ungefähr zwei Wochen, wobei die Maische nur sehr wenig behandelt und bewegt wird. Anschließend wird der junge Wein, ohne Zugabe von schwefliger Säure, in ein Holzfass umgezogen, wo der biologische Säureabbau stattfindet. Sobald dieser abgeschlossen ist, wird der zuvor eingefrorene Anteil unvergorenen Mostes zugefügt und der Wein so in Flaschen abgefüllt. Es findet nun eine zweite Gärung in der Flasche statt, wobei diese aufrecht gestellt werden, damit sich das Hefedepot auf dem Flaschenboden absetzt.

Tiefes Rubinrot. Intensives Aroma mit fruchtigen roten und schwarzen Beeren und floralen Noten sowie Nuancen von Asphalt. Im Antrunk kraftvoll, körperreich, mit markantem Gerbstoff und frischer Säure am Gaumen. Feine Perlage und ein langes, anhaltendes Finale.

Bitte beachten Sie, dass dieser Wein stets stehend gelagert werden sollte. Auch ist beim Öffnen Vorsicht geboten, da der Druck durch die im Wein auf natürliche Weise entstandene Kohlensäure von Flasche zu Flasche unterschiedlich hoch sein kann. SUPERIORE.DE

Der überaus komplexe Barbera d'Asti La Crena stammt von bis zu 90 Jahre alten Rebstöcken im Herzen des Nizza Monferrato-Gebietes und duftet nach reifen roten Früchten, Heu und Gebäck. Der gehaltvolle, warme Geschmack klingt mit viel dunkler Frucht, wohlproportionierter Säure und feinen Kakaotönen lang nach. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Vietti 2018 Barbera d'Asti La Crena sees its fruit sourced from very old vines with some of the plants approaching the 100-year-old mark. This is a rich and darkly concentrated wine with a lovely bouquet that is lifted and bright. The wine reveals dark cherry fruit, raw blackberry and plum. That opulent, old-vine fruit drowns out much of the acidic sharpness of the grape." Robert Parker

Barbera d'Alba Scarrone von gleichnamigem Weinberg ist ein schön vielschichtiges, reiches Barbera-Cru. Aromen von dunklen duftigen Früchten, Gewürzen, Lakritze und Mineralien. Opulent und tadellos ausgeglichene, seidige Tannine, süße blumige Noten im langen trockenen Nachhall. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2018 Barbera d'Alba Vigna Scarrone combines fruit intensity with finesse to a degree I don't think I have seen before. Silky yet deep, with captivating balance, the 2018 is seductive from the very first taste. Black cherry, plum, mocha, spice, licorice and leather flesh out as this succulent, juicy Barbera shows off its considerable charms. The 2018 is a joyous wine from the very first taste." Vinous

Vielschichtige Aromatik mit Noten von Waldbeeren, Schokolade und Minze, am Gaumen viel Kraft, Frucht und Fülle, würzig-opulentes Finale. Ein Barbera, der reifen kann und sollte ... aber Obacht, denn die Minimalauflage dieses erlesenen Extrakts aus knapp 1,4 Hektar Rebberg ist meist in Windeseile ausverkauft. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2018 Barbera d'Alba Vigna Vecchia Scarrone has an extra kick of darkness, structure and overall gravitas than the regular Scarrone bottling, if that term can even be used. Scorched earth, licorice, black cherry, plum and menthol infuse the 2018 with serious depth. I would cellar the 2018 for at least a few years. It is a gorgeous wine in the making, but some of the tannin needs to melt away." Vinous

Barolo Castiglione ist der preiswerteste der fünf Barolo des Hauses und demonstriert eindrucksvoll das hohe Niveau Viettis. Er beginnt seinen großen Auftritt mit dichten Aromen von getrockneten Kirschen, Pflaumen und Teer und fügt dann Noten von weißen Blumen und Gewürzen an. Es folgen mineralische Schattierungen und Erinnerungen an Rauchfleisch. Am Gaumen ebenso vielschichtig und komplex, griffig die seidigen Tannine. Er besitzt bereits in jüngeren Jahren eine feine Frucht und Finesse, die ihn als einen der herausragenden Vertreter der Appellation identifiziert. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2017 Barolo Castiglione is a wild, exotic wine. Super-ripe red cherry, kirsch, cinnamon, tobacco, new leather and rose petal all flesh out in this ample, voluptuous Barolo from Vietti. The 2017 is a wine of significant heft hidden behind a wall of tannin. Give it a few years to soften or open it well in advance. Time brings out striking translucence as well as finesse." Vinous

"This is one of the most versatile wines to emerge from Italy in recent years. A bread and butter winner for Vietti, the 2017 Barolo Castiglione is sharply contoured and bright, with an excellent quality of fruit that can be described as crisp, tonic and rich. That extra concentration comes in part from the hot vintage; however, the greater Castiglione growing area delivers consistent quality and persistence above all else." Robert Parker

"There’s such purity of fruit to this with both dried and ripe strawberries and citrus rind. It’s full-bodied and structured with layers of ripe tannins that are fine and polished. Tight at the end. Give this two or three years to open and soften." James Suckling

Mit dem Jahrgang 2019 erhält "Scarrone Vigna Vecchia" die Bio-Zertifizierung. Vielschichtige Aromatik mit Noten von Waldbeeren, Schokolade und Minze, am Gaumen viel Kraft, Frucht und Fülle, würzig-opulentes Finale. Ein Barbera, der reifen kann und sollte. Die Kleinauflage dieses erlesenen Extrakts aus knapp 1,4 Hektar Rebberg ist meist in Windeseile ausverkauft. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Vietti 2018 Langhe Nebbiolo Perbacco is a charming wine, both delicate and easygoing, that makes good on a promise to deliver basic Nebbiolo intensity and varietal purity. Small berry aromas, cassis and chopped mint emerge from the bouquet. To the palate, the wine is simple and streamlined, with mildly drying tannins on the close." Robert Parker

"Forget baby Nebbiolo! This assertive wine from Vietti is a stylish Langhe with a sleek nose and bracing palate. Bright ruby in the glass, it has telltale Nebbiolo aromas of rosehip and orange peel. Strawberry fruit is accompanied by firm, polished tannins, crisp acidity, and an amazing rhubarb savouriness that carries the finish. It comes from a selection of grapes grown in both Barolo and Barbaresco, mostly on the classic combination of limestone and clay." Decanter

Der bereits im Jahre 1967 erstmals gefüllte Masseria stammt von einem Weinberg in Bricco di Neive und wird im Wesentlichen wie ein Barolo vinifiziert und ausgebaut. In der Nase beeindruckende Tiefe und Intensität mit leuchtend roten Kirsch-, Preiselbeer-, Kreide- und Blumennoten. Am Gaumen dann voll aromatischer Vielschichtigkeit und Kraft, ohne je seinen Vietti-typischen Glanz zu verlieren. SUPERIORE.DE

"A release of 5,193 bottles, the Vietti 2017 Barbaresco Masseria opens to a spicy bouquet with a subtle point of white pepper or dried ginger that hovers over the bouquet, albeit briefly. At its core, the wine shows bright berry notes and some plum, although the wine's concentration remains finely etched and elegantly streamlined, overall." Robert Parker

"So much fruit here with dried-strawberry, floral and citrus aromas. Full-bodied with very integrated tannins that are polished and dusty, yet chewy and fine. Dry earth and berry at the end. Becomes shy and reserved. Let it open." James Suckling

Barbera d'Asti Superiore Nizza La Crena duftet nach reifen roten Früchten, Heu und Gebäck, der gehaltvolle Geschmack mit einer herrlichen Wärme klingt mit feinen Kakaotönen lang nach. SUPERIORE.DE

"A ripe, concentrated version, this offers saturated flavors of blackberry, black cherry and plum, with hints of chocolate and spice. Vibrant and juicy, offsetting the firm structure." Wine Spectator

"This is a very impressive nose indeed for a Barbera, dripping in smoke, dried lavender, licorice, elderberries and herbal liqueur. Despite the exuberant initial impression, the palate is polished and suave, casting a web of neatly arranged tannins amidst plush dark fruit." James Suckling

"The 2017 Barbera d'Asti La Crena opens to all the sunshine, exuberance and richness that come with wines from this hot vintage. Barbera is one of the few grapes in Italy's repertoire of indigenous varieties that welcomes the scorching summer heat ("bring it on," it beckons). It maintains its acidity and tart berry profile despite the soaring temperatures. This is more evident with fruit from the Asti area. This wine offers textual weight all backed by tangy freshness. La Crena is partially made with fruit from old vines, planted some 90 years ago." Robert Parker

"The 2017 Barbera d'Asti La Crena is one of the most elegant versions of this wine I have ever tasted. Barbera loves the heat, and the 2017 certainly seems to have responded well to those conditions. La Crena can be a bit edgy in its youth, but the 2017 is wonderfully polished. Give it a few years in bottle to develop the full range of aromatics that make Barberas from this site so compelling. La Crena remains one of the hidden gems in the Vietti range." Vinous

Barbera d'Alba Scarrone von gleichnamigem Weinberg ist ein schön vielschichtiger, reicher Barbera-Cru. Aromen von dunklen duftigen Früchten, Gewürzen, Lakritze und Mineralien. Opulent und tadellos ausgeglichene, seidige Tannine, süße blumige Noten im langen trockenen Nachhall. SUPERIORE.DE

"Licorice, burnt blackberries, tea leaves and dried spices are in play. Full body. Lightly grainy tannins bring structure and gravitas to the mix." James Suckling

"The 2017 Barbera d'Alba Vigna Scarrone is a rich, powerful wine. Sweet tobacco, cedar, licorice and wild red cherry add striking aromatic nuance. Once an inky, dark wine, Scarrone has become more refined in recent years, which also means it is a bit less immediate, but will be more nuanced in time. There is certainly plenty to look forward to here." Vinous

"This bottling from Barolo’s Scarrone cru comes from 30-year-old plantings. Garden herbs, liquorice, lavender and clove infuse plum and black cherry. It’s creamy in texture with plush, polished tannins, a succulent core and an energetic finish. While this doesn’t have the intense concentration of the old-vine bottling, the sheer drinkability makes it just as appealing." Decanter

"Though rich and fruity, this red is also dense and muscular, featuring violet, blackberry and black plum flavors enmeshed with the thick texture. Touches of spice and graphite add depth as this cruises to a lingering finish. Shows fine balance and length." Wine Spectator

"The Vietti 2017 Barbera d'Alba Vigna Scarrone is defined by a spot of sweetness backed by generous layers of dried blackberry, plum and black cherry. This vintage offers a generous level of intensity that is soft and almost succulent in character. There is so much primary fruit in this wine, but the complexity and the varietal character of the grape remain beautifully intact nonetheless." Robert Parker

Viettis Barolo Brunate ist duftig und klar, intensiv nach Rosen und Himbeeren, verführerische süße Fruchtnoten. Auch am Gaumen sehr klar und geradlinig mit dichtem Tannin, schöne Tiefe und lang. SUPERIORE.DE

"From one of the region’s most celebrated vineyards, the 2009 Barolo Brunate lavishes on smoky, granite and mineral notes that make this wine absolutely irresistible. Even the drawing of a snail on the label seems to hammer home one obvious point: This wine is built for longer cellaraging. Its rich texture, velvety feel and firm structure are guaranteesthat it will become increasingly elegant and finessed with time." Robert Parker

"Wonderful depth of ripe fruit on the nose with a purity andfreshness. Full body, with integrated tannins and a caressing mouthfeel. Pretty fruit character. Brunate made excellent wines in 2009." JamesSuckling

"Sattes, glänzendes Rubin mit leichtem Granatschimmer. Konzentrierteund ansprechende Nase, satt nach reifen Waldbeeren, vor allem Himbeere und Brombeere, tiefgründig, im Hintergrund etwas weißer Pfeffer. Geschliffenes und sattes Tannin am Gaumen, breitet sich schön aus, zeigt auch satten Schmelz, im Finale herzhaft, sehr langer Nachhall." Falstaff

"Luca recently purchased more land in the Lazzarito cru. The 2009 Barolo Lazzarito delivers subdued notes of red rose and violet that build inintensity as the wine takes on more air in the glass. Black fruit, plum, cassis, leather, tar and licorice soon follow suit. This wine is anabsolute, drop-dead stunner. Its tannic crispness makes it feel livelyand buoyant in the mouth. The wine shows heft and importance that become firmly etched in the mouth. Each time I went back to the glass, thewine told a new story." Robert Parker

"A beautiful core of blueberry and strawberry fruit in this wine - structured yet very fine. It's full-bodied, with polished and fine tannins and a long, long finish. Lots of subtle mineral and milkchocolate character here." James Suckling

Hochkarätiger, komplexer und moderner Barolo aus Serralunga: Elegantes, vielschichtiges Bouquet von Kirschen und Heidelbeeren, der körperreiche Geschmack ist von beachtlicher Dichte und Länge, tadellos integriert die Tannine. SUPERIORE.DE

"Funkelndes Rubin mit Granatschimmer. Feine und duftige Nase, eröffnet mit Noten nach Koriander und Chinarinde, dann viel Rosenblätter, Kirsche und Himbeere. Stoffig und satt am Gaumen, öffnet sich mit viel herzhaftem, präsentem Tannin, tiefgründig, präsente dunkle Beerenfrucht, langer Nachhall, ein Spätzünder!" Falstaff

"The 2011 Barolo Lazzarito is a landmark wine and one of the best expressions made region-wide in this challenging vintage. The bouquet is gorgeous thanks to the never-ending aromas of dark fruit, licorice and balsam herb that peel off the top. The Lazzarito vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba is characterized by thick soils and deep shifts between daytime and nighttime temperatures. These are important factors that lead to quality fruit despite the summer heat." Robert Parker

"The 2011 Barolo Lazzarito is fabulous in this vintage. Rich, ample and structured, the 2011 is both opulent and savory in style. Iron, plums, dark red cherries, smoke, licorice and tobacco meld together in a remarkably harmonious young Serralunga Barolo. This is the first year the Vietti Lazzarito includes a second recently acquired parcel, which may be one of the factors that influences quality, but at the same time, the Lazzarito has been the most improved Barolo in the range. All the elements come together in the 2011, a wine that has it all. This is a great showing from the Lazzarito. Best of all, readers won't have to wait forever to enjoy this beautiful, pedigreed Barolo." VINOUS

Barolo Brunate ist ein großzügiger, vollmundiger Wein mit femininen Aromen von süßen Beeren und Milchschokolade, sehr balsamisch und rund. Der Geschmack fließt mit viel Frucht, schöner Intensität und großer Offenheit. Fest strukturiert mit seidigen Tanninen, im Abgang elegant und frisch. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2011 Barolo Brunate is a wine of enormous pedigree, although it does not fully reach the aspiring heights of the 2010 and 2009 vintages immediately before it. Those wines set the bar so high, you need to settle for this wine that is a masterpiece in its own right. It offers deep, dark intensity with generous tones of ripe fruit, blackberry and red currant. Background notes of rosemary, cherry cola and licorice add vitality and focus. There is a subtle touch of softness in the mouth that is followed by firm tannins." Robert Parker

"A dark, exotic Barolo, the 2011 Brunate boasts tons of density and volume. Black cherry, plum, spice, licorice, new leather and menthol are some of the many nuances that flesh out in the glass. Ultimately, though, the 2011 is largely defined by the texture and amplitude of the year." VINOUS

"A beautiful purity of fruit to this young Barolo with ripe strawberries, citrus, flowers and spice. Full body, integrated tannins and a long finish. Need another two or three years to soften." James Suckling

"Smooth and harmonious, featuring cherry, licorice, tar and underbrush flavors. The tannins are present yet integrated. Fresh and long on the finish." Wine Spectator

Barolo Ravera repräsentiert den traditionelleren Stil der Weinbereitung bei Vietti. Graphit- und Eisenaromen, dazu fruchtig süße Noten von Kirsche und Himbeere, Leder und schwarzer Tee. Intensive Frucht mit komplexer Struktur und schön verwobenem Tannin. Leistungsstark und außergewöhnlich stilvoll. SUPERIORE.DE

"Leuchtendes, intensives Rubin-Granat. Fein angelegte Nase mit Noten nach Himbeere und dunklen Rosen, im Hintergrund nach Feuerstein und Trüffeln. Am Gaumen sehr präsent, zeigt viel Frucht, zugleich feinmaschiges, dichtes Tannin, das noch etwas Lagerung verträgt, hat sehr gutes Potenzial, langer Nachhall." Falstaff

"The 2011 Barolo Ravera opens to a pretty garnet color and dark ruby luminosity. The wine delivers tight concentration and a fine texture that adheres closely to the palate. Blackberry, cassis, spice, leather and tobacco emerge from the glass. Barolo Ravera also offers an earthy tone of white truffle or porcino mushroom. Soft oak density and thick fruit extract give the wine beautiful, full-bodied appeal. Give it ten more years of cellar aging to lose the baby fat." Robert Parker

"The 2011 Barolo Ravera is once again the most vibrant and nuanced of the Vietti Barolos. Freshly cut flowers, crushed rocks, mint and bright red stone fruits are all shaped by a very classic sense of mineral-inflected drive that is such a Ravera signature. The 2011 is a more than worthy follow up to the epic 2010. It's great to see this high-altitude district in Novello finally getting its due." VINOUS

"Cherry and plum flavors permeate this rich, powerful red. Accented by menthol and leather, this is balanced and fresh, with a lingering aftertaste of mineral and tobacco." Wine Spectator

"Engaging scents of wild berry, rose petal, aromatic herb and spice lead the nose. The full-bodied palate slowly reveals red cherry, anise, black pepper, clove and tobacco framed in assertive tannins and bright acidity. Give this time to fully open and develop." Wine Enthusiast

"Sattes Rubin mit Granatschimmer. Prä­sentiert sich in der Nase mit Noten nach Lakritze, Trüffel und Rosenholz, dann viel Zwetschke, im Hintergrund nach Lakritze. Am Gaumen markant, zeigt sich sehr stoffig, tiefgründig, gereifte Frucht und erdige Noten, öffnet sich mit straffem Tannin in vielen Schichten, im Finale fester Druck, salzig und lange." Falstaff

"This Barolo offers the trademark power and integrity that is so distinctive of wines made in Serralunga d'Alba. The 2012 Barolo Lazzarito delivers muscle, brawn, and an endearing sense of confidence and determination. The is a lovely interpretation that opens to dark fruit aromas that are sharply framed by spice, tobacco, tilled earth and cooling menthol. The overall effect is generous, well-structured and full-bodied. This wine is poised to age over the next twenty years." Robert Parker

"The 2012 Barolo Lazzarito impresses for its precision and class, two qualities that aren't easy to find in wines from this Serralunga site. Iron, smoke and white pepper lift from the glass in a vertical, structured Barolo endowed with real pedigree. A rush of pomegranate, red cherry jam, wild flowers and blood orange meld into the huge, bright finish. In 2012, the Lazzarito reconciles power and finesse like few vintages in the past. For the last few years, the Lazzarito has been knocking on the door of the big boys in this lineup, the Rocche and Ravera. Today, the Lazzarito makes a strong statement that it has arrived." VINOUS

"It's hard not to fall in love with the 2012 Barolo Brunate. This is an uneven vintage across the appellation, but Vietti has managed to harness the very best side of the grape during this growing season. The wine is densely concentrated and rich with black cherry, cassis and spice. It shows firm structure at the back with elegantly polished and fine-tuned tannins. The wine is almost approachable now (in another five years), but is more suitable for longer bottle aging." Robert Parker

"The aromas of licorice, violets and bramble berries impress. Full body, incredible length and texture. Lasts for minutes on the palate." James Suckling

Jung und frisch, sattes Rubingranat, komplexes, sehr aromatisches Bouquet, kräftiges Tannin,viel Frucht, feiner Schmelz, sauber strukturiert, harmonisch ausbalanciert, langes Finale. Lagern Sie ihn so gut Sie können und genießen Sie die Vorfreude! SUPERIORE.DE

"Samtiges, sattes Rubin. Sehr präsente und frische Nase, satt nach Zwetschken, Himbeeren, dazu auch Preiselbeeren, ansprechend. Sehr saftig im Ansatz, öffnet sich mit feinmaschigem, zugleich dichtem Tannin, schöner Schmelz, breitet sich lange aus, im Finale fester Druck." Falstaff

"The 2012 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione is one of the bigger, richer wines in the lineup, which is a bit atypical. Readers should expect a huge, dramatic Rocche built on power, intensity and volume. At the same time, the Rocche is incredibly precise and layered. It is that very interplay of richness and finesse that makes the Rocche so alluring. Rose petal, mint and sweet red berries build to a crescendo of aromas, flavors and textures that takes over all the senses." VINOUS

"Wow. The rose petal aroma is gorgeous with ripe strawberry and cherry undertones. Full body, dense and powerful. Chewy and rich tannins. Lasts for minutes on the palate." James Suckling
