Note di degustazione
Monforte d'Alba. Mid ruby with bricky rim. Very lifted, peach and apricot nose! Very intense and perfumed on the palate. Hugely controversial, this one. Super concentration. Will have its critics, as well as its fans. Intense and very different. Love-it-or-hate-it category. Clearly in need of more age to mellow out. (WS)

Marco Parusso's Barolo Le Coste di Monforte is a bit changed in this vintage, in that the new regulations forbid using the name of more than one vineyard on a label, so there is no more Mosconi fruit here. Dark red cherries, tobacco, savory herbs, menthol, smoke and incense are some of the many notes that blossom in the 2010 Barolo Le Coste. Here the aromas and flavors are slightly darker, but the savory notes typical of the vintage at Parusso are very much on display. Readers will need to give the 2010 at least a few years for the tannins to soften. Without the Mosconi fruit, the Le Coste remains a bit more structured and linear than in the past.
