This is oaky stuff today but it’s impressively stylish all the same and the underlying material is so good that this should harmonize with time

This too displays an unbelievably seductive nose of vanilla

There is reasonable volume and richness to the caressing yet punchy and powerful flavors that brim with minerality that carries over to the tension-filled

the 1999 has more than enough depth to drink well for a number of years

Luigi Oddero, Barolo Rocche Rivera Size:6x750ml This is oaky stuff todayThe 2014 Barolo Rocche Rivera(from the Scarrone cru) packs a serious punch in its deceptively midweight frame. Sweet red cherry, kirsch, hard candy, wild flowers and mint make a strong first impression before the firm 2014 Nebbiolo tannins kick in. Today, the Rocche Rivera is a bit rough around the edges and a touch wild, but it is certainly not lacking in personality. Antonio Galloni
