I had the '01 last night. It was the last of 3 that I scooped up on auction. The first bottle last year was fantastic, second not so much, this last one was somewhere in between. Definitely a modern style but really good with food.

2023 Comm. G.B. Burlotto Langhe Nebbiolo: Quite pale in appearance. A gorgeous nose of rose petals, strawberry and cherry. There’s ripeness in the mouth and silkiness of texture. It has gentle tart fruit crunch and some plum skin-like tannins on the finish. An elegant, perfumed and delicious rendition of Nebbiolo.

2017 Massolino Langhe Nebbiolo
Super langhe Neb, dark cherry, black olive and floral that glides across the palate. Good density, but also quite fine. Now developing some complexity, and is ageing very gracefully under screwcap. Consistently a great buy.
