Ratings & Reviews
93 Points - Wine Spectator Magazine:
"This round red shows ample fruit, yet also plenty of grip. Cherry, licorice, mushroom and forest underbrush flavors mesh effortlessly as this steams to a lingering conclusion of fruit, leather and spice accents. Best from 2014 through 2032. 600 cases made." - BS (Nov 30, 2011)
90 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"Made from a blend of fruit from two vineyard crus, the 2006 Barolo Preda Sarmassa shows a large frame and heavy consistency. Dark fruit, oak spice and leather are presented in broad brush strokes. The wine is aged in wood (botte grande and tonneaux) for three years and ultimately that oak element is the dominant force. The wine finishes with soft tannins and sweet flavors of blackberry and baking spice. It will appeal to those who enjoy wines from the bolder and bigger side of the Barolo spectrum." - Monica Larner (28th Jun 2015)
