print cellar notes

Color: Dark garnet red.

Nose: Characteristic, intense, sweet spices, violet, balsamic notes.

Flavor: Warm, soft, clean, fresh, soft tannins, long and pleasant ending.

Serving suggestions: Spicy and elaborated meat dishes, aged Piedmontese cheeses.

Wine Spectator What a beautiful nose, with flowers, licorice, ripe fruit and fresh leather. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a wonderful ripeness of fruit, yet this is balanced and structured. Very smooth. The best wine I have ever had from this producer. Best after 2012. Score: 95. —James Suckling, June 15, 2008.

Wine Advocate Seghesio is yet another producer who seems to have arrived at a newfound level of elegance. Fermentations have gradually been lengthened and the use of French oak is down from previous vintages. The 2004 Barolo La Villa is notably elegant and restrained for this bottling. It opens with perfumed aromatics that meld into layers of ripe dark fruit intermingled with sweet notes from the French oak. This superbly well-balanced, poised Barolo should be even better with another few years of bottle age. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2022. Score: 92. —Antonio Galloni, December 2007.
