Note di degustazione
Past vintages of this wine report the name of the MGA (Cannubi Boschi), but from this point on, the wine is called Aleste. This is a late-release project with bottles that are held back in a brick-lined room for an additional 10 years of bottle age. The Luciano Sandrone 2013 Barolo Aleste Sibi et Paucis is a true classic. The wine still shows hints of its primary fruit, but it has otherwise moved into an exciting phase of its evolution. There is dried spice, campfire ash, licorice and truffle essence. The flavors trigger your mouth to salivate, and the tannins feel like silk.

The 2013 Barolo Aleste Sibi et Paucis, the Sandrone library release of the 2013 is a powerhouse. A rush of black cherry, mocha, new leather, licorice, cloves and tobacco race across the palate. The Aleste is a bit more forward than Le Vigne, but it, too, is aging pretty slowly. The 2013 can be enjoyed now with a good decant, but I would cellar it for another year or two. Aromatics in the empty glass are nothing less than thrilling.
Youthful mid ruby. Stunning nose that is not fully open yet. A hint of cardamon pod, damson and sour cherry. With aeration: raspberry. On the palate, succulent and layered with pure notes of cherry and orange. Spectacular tannins – layered and firm yet fine. Great freshness, depth and tannic bite.
