“Fermented with only wild yeasts and aged in large Slavonian casks, this is a bold and delicious wine, delivering earthy aromas of tilled soil, spice and berry. The palate delivers layers of blackberry, dark cherry, cinnamon, white pepper and licorice alongside bracing but ripe tannins. This will age well and develop complexity. Drink 2019–2029.” -Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, Feb. 2014

“Aromas of blackberries with hints of spices and dried fruits. Full body, chewy tannins and a delicious finish. Better after 2015.” -James Suckling, Jan. 2014

“A soft and silky wine with a plum and hazelnut character. Full and round with soft tannins and a fresh and clean finish. Drink or hold.” -James Suckling, Jan. 2014

“Delicate aromas of tar and roses with hints of cherries. Full body, with silky tannins and a delicate berry, cocoa and dried mushroom character. It’s very silky and fresh. Better in 2014.” -James Suckling, Jan. 2014

“A light colored Barolo with a wonderful mouthfeel with ripe fruit and soft, silky tannins. Full body with tangy acidity and lots of delicious fruit from mangos to berries. A joy to drink already but better in two or three years.” -James Suckling, Jan. 2014

“Gorgeous aromas of plums, cedar and incense. Full body, velvety tannins and a delicately fruity finish. Firm yet polished and beautiful. A lovely texture to this. Better in 2015.” -James Suckling, Jan. 2014

“Aromas of blueberries and hints of cedar and flowers. Full body, with fine and silky tannins and a long and beautiful finish. The center palate in this wine is so beautiful and seductive. There’s almost a peach undertone in the flavors. Better in 2016.” -James Suckling, Jan. 2014

“Plenty of dried berries and flowers on the nose follow through to a full to medium body with firm and racy tannins and a long finish. This really builds on your palate. Better after 2015.” -James Suckling, Jan. 2014

“Cascina Bongiovanni’s 2010 Barolo Pernanno is striking. Dark red cherry, plum, cloves, menthol, licorice, smoke and French oak blossom in the glass. Rich, sumptuous and layered, the 2010 is another gorgeous wine with plenty of near-term appeal. Here, too, the fruit is striking. I can’t think of too many Barolos that deliver this much pure pleasure and immediacy.” -Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan. 2014

“Sweet, silky tannins provide the backbone for the 2010 Barolo Cannubi, a wine that impresses for its creamy texture and fabulous overall balance. Sweet red berries, mint, tobacco, cherries and flowers flesh out in a soft, caressing Barolo loaded with finesse. All the elements fall together in the glass. The Cannubi is naturally a more feminine wine than the Terlo, and equally appealing, even if it is totally different in style.” -Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan. 2014
