Score 88/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Nov 2013

Moderately saturated medium red. Aromas of musky raspberry, strawberry, mocha, tobacco and smoke. Soft and supple, showing modest cut and definition to its red fruit flavors. Finishes a bit aggressive and dry. Not bad.

Score 92/100 · Drink 2015-2025, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Jun 2013

The 2009 Barolo sees fruit sourced from various townships and presents a masculine note of musky spice and leather in front of dried cherry and cassis. A zesty touch of acidity brings levity and energy to the mouth and helps to bring an extra kick of brightness to the finish. The wine boasts age-worthy qualities but probably shouldn’t be put away for too long. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2025. The Oddero family released its first bottle of wine in 1878. Since then, the winery was handed down six generations, father to son. That tradition changed with the seventh generation. Today, sisters Mariacristina and Mariavittoria (daughters of Giacomo Oddero) own the winery and 35 hectares of vineyard spread across the townships of Serralunga d’Alba, La Morra, Monforte d’Alba and Castiglione Falletto. I have always enjoyed a particular appreciation for the delicate and super elegant wines of Oddero and was pleased to taste the excellent results achieved in 2009.
