Monforte d’Alba. Cool fragrant cherry nose with hardly any sign of age. Really focused and linear yet ripe. Fine powdery tannins with a succulent finish. Beautiful spread and complexity yet still so tight. Transparent Nebbiolo. (WS)

Monforte d’Alba. Sweet and juicy, and showing proper development in that earthy spectrum. Floral too – really showboating Barolo’s potential. The tannins are already approachable too, though they need either lots of hearty food or another few years in bottle, preferably. (RH)

Score 15.5/20 · Drink 2015-2020, Jancis Robinson MW, Sep 2012

Mid ruby, though not that clear. Light nose that’s quite evolved and a bit simple. Not very ambitious or lively. Ticks boxes without really engaging the taster. Astringent finish. (JR)

Monforte d’Alba. Mid ruby with orange rim. Sweet raspberry and cherry fruit and a load of drying tannin on the finish. (WS)
