2007 Roberto Voerzio, Barolo, Brunate, Bottle (750ml) [marked capsule]

Wine Advocate | 98 Points

"The 2007 Barolo Brunate is likely to leave most tasters speechless. It is a fabulous, deeply-pitched, totally seamless Barolo of the highest level. The richness and depth of the fruit is almost obscenely opulent. Dark cherries, plums, licorice and menthol are some of the aromas and flavors that flow from this textured, brilliant Brunate. The length, persistence and definition are all spellbinding purity. This is pure magic in a glass, but readers will have to be patient to catch the wine at its peak. A recent magnum of the 1990 was stupendous."

Roberto Voerzio is a true icon of Piemonte, renowned for crafting “some of the richest, deepest, and most texturally beautiful wines” (Antonio Galloni, Vinous).

With the region’s lowest yields - 3,200 vines per acre compared to the traditional 1,200–1,600 - Voerzio’s radical approach achieves unparalleled richness and intensity. Despite the concentration from low yields, his wines maintain a remarkable freshness, allowing them to age with elegance and style.

By blending modern innovation with traditional winemaking methods, Voerzio has become a new-age benchmark for Barolo, earning one of the largest cult followings in Piemonte.
