Wine Critic Reviews
Wine Enthusiast (93): Earthy notes of mushroom and tea dominate the aromatic profile, while darker red fruits linger in the background. A generous array of spices adds complexity to the bouquet. The palate is pretty and well-structured, revealing a serious wine with depth and finesse. This impressive wine is invigorating and energizing, a wine worth the search. Drink Now - 2035.
Wine Review Online (91): Founded in 1876, the Oberto family runs this small estate in the La Morra village. The 2019 Barolo del Commune di La Morra offers a captivating nose with aromas of red plum preserves, fresh vibrant cherries, rosemary, and bay leaf, complemented by a hint of black tea adding depth and complexity. On the palate, it delivers layers of dark fruit and firm tannins, balanced by acidity that integrates into a long, persistent finish. If you appreciate floral and forest notes, enjoy this now with a decant. If you prefer leather and softened tannins, put a few bottles in the cellar. (Miranda Franco)
