| Description: | 93-96 Jd / 94 Ko / 93 Vm / 93 Ws / 17+ Jr. The 2019 Barolo Berri was tasted from two barrels, one of which utilized whole bunches in the fermentation. While both offered freshness and purity, the second barrel offered more significant spice in its profile, with more depth of fruit, and is firmly structured at this stage. The components are compelling and should make for a wonderful finished blend in a few years' time.-Jeb Dunnuck. Linear and fragrant, the radiant 2019 Barolo Berri from Trediberri opens with heady scents recalling rose, sun-warmed hay, woodland berry and whiffs of crushed mint. On the firm palate, tightly wound, fine-grained tannins support crushed raspberry, red cherry, white pepper and star anise while bright acidity keeps it balanced. As is typical for the vintage, this is still youthfully austere and will benefit with more bottle age. Drink 2027–2039. Abv: 14.5% - Kerin O'Keefe. The 2019 Barolo Berri is tightly wound and austere in the early going. Crushed red berry fruit, iron, dried herbs and white pepper give the Berri a striking aromatic top register. The tannins are a bit nervy, though, so a few years in bottle are warranted. Frost decimated the crop at Torriglione, which is why this wine (typically the Barolo del Comune di La Morra) is Berri in 2019. To be exact, there is 4% Torriglione, as that was the wine used for topping.-Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media. Spicy, this red evokes strawberry, cherry, medicinal herbs and mineral flavors. Bears the austere profile of the vintage, yet is balanced and persists on the long finish. Best from 2026 through 2043. -B.S., Wine Spectator. La Morra. Youthful mid ruby. Voluptuous, perfumed cherry fruit of impressive concentration and sweetly spiced. Cool, collected and polished, the palate reveals fine, gravelly tannins that become more pronounced on the finish. Already delicious, but a couple of years more in bottle will bring out the underlying complexity of this wine. Overachiever. -Walter Speller, JancisRobinson. |
