Note di degustazione
From a vineyard that sits just above Cannubi as you look at it, bought by the family in 1988 ('When you could still buy vineyards', Andrea says). This has a sweeter punch on the nose and a sweet, ripe, glossy power. Roasted meat. And in the mouth, this has a glossy, ripe and sweet power with a touch of well-executed barrel gloss. This has a weight to it that impresses, and will please those who like a fuller, rounder style.

From the village of Borolo, this single-vineyard expression delivers impressive power and depth. We get big fruit intensity in the 2011 Barolo Albarella. There's plenty of spice and deep texture in this very bright and beautiful wine.
Mid ruby. Lift on the nose and roundness. Not especially concentrated and very slightly jammy but with the promise of future development and both raciness and lots of fruit. Smoky, tarry finish and impressive persistence. VGV (JR)
The 2011 Barolo Albarella is soft, supple and generous, very much in the style of the year. Plums, dark red cherries, spices, vanillin and lavender are all supported by beams of firm yet well-integrated tannins that give the wine its sense of proportion. The 2011 could use another year or so to soften, even if it is already quite expressive.
