2004 Vietti Barolo Villero Riserva

Next up - 2007 Monprivato…anyone?

If you want to drink Monfortino juice,you’ll have to buy the Cascina Francia…

I like Monprivato…have some 04,05,06 and I am going to buy some 07…

Should I buy some 07 Cascina Francia? Thought about it but yet to pull the trigger…Monprivato much less expensive…

Sorry.I had a brain fart.
Instead of seeing Monprivato,I saw MonFORTINO.
I like Monprivato too… [drinkers.gif]

Any thoughts on the 2007 Monprivato?

I thought the 2007 Monprivato was shaping up quite nicely when last tasted, plenty of fruit but nicely precise with fine structure. The 2006 Villero tasted the same day outclassed it.

I feel the same about the 06 Monprivato…

That it was outclassed by the 06 Villero or that it also outclasses the 07 Monprivato?

I had the 06 and 07 Monprivato side by side last month and preferred the 06 markedly to the 07…but that was 1 point in time.We all know how difficult it is to measure Monprivato early.
Interestingly enough,the 07 has 4% each of Lampia and Rose.
When was the last time this happened?
