Thanks for your video, but for my taste Domenico Clerico and Vietti are very overrated including their Barolo MGA. To my taste, the wines Cordero di Montezemolo - Barolo Monfalletto and Paolo Scavino - Barolo are very good and tasty. Paolo Scavino also has very good Barolo MGA, but their prices are quite high. I started the wine hobby 3 years ago and I only have 283 wines tasted, rated and recorded, so I'm a beginner and still have a long way to go.
In my view Vietti is one of the top, top producers in the region. Interesting how the style will change now that original owners are no longer with the estate. Paolo Scavino does offer great wines, and I love many of their single vineyards, but it is Serralunga - so very structured and powerful wines and sometimes delicacy can be preferred. 🥰 Cheers! 🍾🍾🍾
Thank you for your love for Piedmont and Nebbiolo. I am a landowner of vineyards in Barbaresco (valle degli asili) expanding in Roero and finally closing for a little plot of land to be barolo Berri cru. What do you think of this cru of La Morra?
Thank You. However, I have to apologise I do not have such a detailed knowledge of each MGA of Barolo or Barbarescos (though Asili I know quite well 🙃). And La Morra for me is usually the more lighter and perfumed style, which I choose to enjoy earlier in their lives! 🍷 Cheers’
Thanks for this and all the other talks. Great content - informative and entertaining - delivered in a personable way. Oh ... and who doesn't love a Vizsla?
All five are GREAT choices... Aldo Conterno is starting to climb up in price quite a bit. Vietti's Castiglione bottling for me is classic and I always have some in the cellar. During blind tastings, I know that Pira's wines can have brett at times (I don't mind it but some people detest it_.
Vietti is not a Barolo I would call affordable... At least not in Sweden... We have a very high alcohol tax here but wine is usually very well priced cause we have only one state own shop for alcohol and they buy in huge volumes which bring down the price and makes you able to fine some real gems here and there with vintages and everything... But Vietti is like 190$ here... Pira is like 32$ and Rivetto 48$ :P
Oooo, wow, that is definitely not affordable, I agree! But maybe that specific wine is a single vineyard? Those can get very expensive, I agree. But, overall, yes, price You mentioned is not affordable in any way. 🥹
Excellent selection! We live in Alba and run our Piemonte Wine Club subscription, focusing on Barolo and Barbaresco wines. 1) you should come see us and we should do a video together! 2) for everyone reading this and liking this video, check out our channel as well 🙏🏻🍷
Thank You and cheers! 🥂 next time I will be in the area I will let You know. I am sure You have some great insight on the wines since Your are living there.
I have some Aldo Conterno, Vietti and Pira in my cellar, and I haven't any regrets buying these wines. I had once Clerico at a tasting - I wasn't impressed that much, but maybe I was in a bad mood or the wine in a difficult stage. But I think you gave very good recommendations!🙂 Maybe you should once look out for Fletcher - they have Barolos and Barbarescos, good quality at still reasonable prices. Hopefully they don't get too high! Cheers!🍷
The names You mentioned are exquisite and no regrets needed! 😂😅 Maybe Clerico wines were simply not Your style, that also happens. I mean, I have few Champagne brands I simply haven’t been able to appreciate at the same level as others do. Still great producers, just not my preference. 🤷♀️
Vietti makes a fantastic Langhe Nebbiolo. It is on my list to always look out for. Pertinace makes a great Barbaresco that is affordable. They are made in the traditional style with orange and violet, soft tannins and can be drunk early.
@@NoSediment I remember listening to an interview with Luca Currado (Maybe: the I'll Drink To That podcast) and he mentioned how great a value Perbacco was, do to the quality and sourcing of the fruit. Is Perbacco the "Langhe Nebbiolo" you referred to?
Hi Agnes, really enjoyed your video, short n sharp. Got myself 2 bottles of G Conterno 2007 & 2011 recently. Can advise when to drink and how long to decant. Love your doggie.. LOL
Hi, Giacomo Conterno is a TOP producer in Barolo and in my opinion these wines should be drinking beautifully now and in the next (5-10) years. Both vintages are considered warm, so these wines might be more approachable sooner than wines from more classical vintages. But I have not tried Giacomo Conterno 2007&2011 recently, so this only my opinion. 🍷✨ Cheers!
There is no talking about Barolo without mention of the late Renato Ratti. And of course the relative cantina. At L'Annunziata below La Morra il grande Renato (worthily followed by his son Pietro) has a wine museum in an old abbey. In any case, wonderful post... I subscribed and delighted to find your channel. Back in the day, my now 98 year old mom (from New York) taught English to plenty of names on your list. Talking about the mid seventies. I like Barolo... but the best and easiest of Alba wines is Dolcetto (no wood, no aging, just stainless steel and fruit). I hope you get around to introducing the world to this fantastically affordable variety.
Thank You and cheers! 🥂 That is a great story about Your mom. During my last visit to Piemonte I made a video about the region and mentioned Dolcetto as well. However, I am yet to make a video on this grape variety alone. 🍾🥂
Thank You for this suggestion. I don’t have them available in my market, but the next time I will be in the region, I will make sure to look them up. 🍷✨
Just got 6 of the 2017 Piro Margheria -JS96, JD94, RP92 and Agnes G - Highly Recommended! Thanks so much! The 2015 was sold out. Will cellar it a few years, try one, and decide if the rest need longer.
Pira was a great surprise to me, I wish I had bought more bottles as well. Giving the fact that they are coming from Serralunga, they should be able to age gracefully.
Thank You! 🙏🏻 I have only tasted it several times, and remember enjoying their style a lot + I always preferred Serralunga wines! Good that You remained me about this producer, I will plan to visit them next time I am in Barolo. 🍷 Cheers! ✨
Thanks for the tips! I just recently bought a case of Pio Cesare Barbaresco, looking forward to sample it. One on my toplist to buy is Barolo Bartolo Mascarello 2016.
Well, Pio Cesare is a great producer. I have been very lucky to be able to visit their extensive cellars. Also still very affordable. Bartolo Mascarello makes lovely wines and because of their price range - its always a special occasion. ✨
I recently purchased a bottle of Conterno Il Favot 2011 for around $40. It was a discounted price as I think an older Langhe Nebbiolo might put some people off. But it was wonderful. Awesome. Felt bummed when it was gone because I knew as a close out I'd never find again at that price. I'm a bargain Barolo shopper.
Wow, great find! I will go further, I have spoken with a lot of wine professionals, and many of them are put off by Nebbiolo. 😬 But yes.. it is such a wonderful grape variety and even Langhe Nebbiolo can age so beautifully and give so much on nose and palate in terms of flavours and complexity. I also like to look for bargains in wine 🍷! 😉
This has been my 2nd viewing of your Channel, and I like your style so I have Subscribed. Once again, Great Job on your presentation about Barolo wines.
Funny how tastes & fashion change ... thirty years ago, Clerico, Aldo Conterno, Vietti, and Pira were all leaders in the movement to "modern" style Barolo, featuring some (and in the case of Clerico, a lot) barrique aging. They were some of the most expensive and hard to finds in the market. I would never have expected them to appear in a list of undervalued producers!
I am sorry for the misunderstanding here. I never meant to say that these wines are undervalued. What I meant is that, they are still relatively affordable now, which might not be the case in few years.
I agree very much that these are high quality producers. Thanks for sharing! With this list I think you will enjoy Roberto Voerzio and Sandrone. That being said, Aldo Conterno Romairasco is still the best Barolo I have had, with Voerzio very close. I think the hidden gems are in Serralunga. The wines speak quality and true terrior, and are priced reasonably too. High quality single vineyards like Prapo and Lazzairasco are still under $100 USD. Names are Guido Porro, Germano, Luigi Vico (newcomer), Giovanni Rosso, etc. So much fun to try! The vigna rionda from Germano and Guido Porro are around $150, they are so tasty!
I completely agree on Serralunga, my favourite sub-region for Barolo wines. Thank You also for adding to the list these producers, they are great and definitely worth mentioning! 🙏🏻
Have you ever try PARUSSO? Their single vineyard: Mariondino really amazing. Also Mosconi, Bussia and Bussia riserva. I also taste their Medoc Classico ( the sparkling wine which made from Nebbiolo) it's really good. The price also affordable, and it is worth it
Parusso seems very affordable. I must try these wines. Thank You for a suggestion - I also really like sparkling wines they make in Piemonte, so that would be lovely to try. 🍾🥂 Cheers!
Are these the wines that You like and enjoy? All amazing producers, of course, in fact Vietti is one of the producers I mention in this video. However, except for Vietti their Barolos all are sold in 3-digit numbers. So for me, only on special occasion. 🤷♀️🍾🥂
I am curious about this region as well now. I might want to visit here after checking out the Bordeaux (and especially St. Emillion) region and then the Rhone River valley. Piedmont and Tuscany I would like to try together. Thanks, Agnes!
Cheers! 🥂 It is not that bad, there are more great and affordable producers out there. These are those that came into my mind showing constantly high quality year after year. 🍷💥
Point taken - this is the list of the wines (wine styles) that I like a lot. It is interesting 🤔, because every time I do a blind tasting - I always choose wines from Serralunga without me knowing they are from this area. I guess it would be politically correct to include all the villages. 🫣
Of the wine varietals, when correlated to price, it seems as though Barola has the most variance. I recently tasted a 2017 Luca Bosio, 14 ABV, and the wine barely had any tannins was Light to Medium bodied and the most subtle trace of spice/oak. The most notable wine attribute was the smooth taste and balance with acidity. After tasting, researched oak aging and indicated 36 months on oak but no disclosure of percent new oak, my hunch is neutral oak. Based on such variance in other Barolas, I think it would be helpful if Barola was further declared/classified as say Light to medium bodied Barolas with ABV less than 14.5 ABV that exhibit soft tannins and do not have much of a bouquet emphasizing the balance and smoothness in taste and then classify the medium to full bodied wines with more pronounced tannins that are 14.5 or greater ABV that exhibit a more notable and evident bouquet that have more percent new oak while aging, say percent oak over 25%. By classifying further based on ABV, percent new oak, and pronouncement of bouquet and tannins, this further classification differentiation should limit the surprises when paying $40+ for a Barola that is not to one's liking.
Hi, I completely understand what You mean. Unfortunately, if wine would be classified by style, I am afraid there might be more confusion. What for one is light bodied, for other might seem full and rich. The same for tannin - I am used to Nebbiolo tannin, most people would still find them very high and firm. If the label would state ‘smooth’ they would feel misled. 🤷♀️ But thank You for the insightful comment, always great to read! 🍷
@No Sediment I realize preference for palate is highly correlated to age, and most associate Nebbiola with firm tannins but the most recent Barola I had, had basically no tannins, which I think most would ascertain; thus, as an attempt to correlate ABV and aging process specifics may give more insight, and, once any taster tries both side by side in a benchmark they can choose which style they prefer after classifying the threshold of 14.5 ABV and 25% new oak noting 20s to 40s aged tasters tend to like less dry and over 50s more dry noting there are always exceptions to the palate age "rule of thumb"

Hi, I completely understand what You mean. Unfortunately, if wine would be classified by style, I am afraid there might be more confusion. What for one is light bodied, for other might seem full and rich. The same for tannin - I am used to Nebbiolo tannin, most people would still find them very high and firm. If the label would state ‘smooth’ they would feel misled. 🤷♀️

@No Sediment I realize preference for palate is highly correlated to age, and most associate Nebbiola with firm tannins but the most recent Barola I had, had basically no tannins, which I think most would ascertain; thus, as an attempt to correlate ABV and aging process specifics may give more insight, and, once any taster tries both side by side in a benchmark they can choose which style they prefer after classifying the threshold of 14.5 ABV and 25% new oak noting 20s to 40s aged tasters tend to like less dry and over 50s more dry noting there are always exceptions to the palate age "rule of thumb"
