"I love the modern label design of this handsome bottle. The Castello di Perno 2017 Barolo Castelletto reveals a robust bouquet with concentrated perfumes that recall dried cherry, black rose and fragrant tea leaf. Much of that intensity comes as a natural part of the vintage, with heat and dry growing conditions that produced smaller, richer berries." |

"Monforte d'Alba. Just mid ruby with the beginning of orange tinges. Savoury earthy marasca cherry nose with hints of cinnamon bark. Lots of personality here. Tightly wound, supple, concentrated cherry with plenty of fresh acidity. Finely grained tannins complement the whole. Quite a feat for this still obscure cru."17++, Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com
"Dark-skinned berry, forest floor and tobacco aromas lead the way. The concentrated palate offers dried black cherry, star anise and clove alongside taut, fine-grained tannins." 91 WE
