Sandrone - Barolo Aleste 2015 (3L)
Vinous: 96 Points
Sandrone's 2015 Barolo Aleste is a total stunner. Succulent dark cherry plum mocha lavender and spice are all beautifully framed by ripe silky tannins. Creamy resonant and super-expressive the 2015 Aleste hits all the right notes. Next to Le Vigne Aleste is more typical of what readers might expect from a warm year. It is a gorgeous Barolo from the Sandrone family.
Wine Spectator: 94 Points
Rose and juniper aromas lead off settling this red into pure flavors of floral cherry strawberry sun-warmed hay licorice and mineral. Linear and firm yet classy and elegant this tightens up on the finish. Best from 2023 through 2043.
James Suckling: 94 Points
Aromas of dried flowers and sweet berries follow through to a full body very firm and chewy tannins and a long flavorful finish. Reserved and tight. Try in 2024.
