An alluring red, this invites you in with aromas and flavors of rose hip, cherry, currant, earth, mineral, tobacco and sweet spices. Firm and beautifully balanced, with finesse and tension between the delicate flavors and energetic tannins, showing excellent intensity and length. Best from 2027 through 2048. From Italy. —B.S.

Intense nose with orange rind, savory salted plums, cloves and minerals here with a touch of mussel shell and white pepper. Juicy and powerful with a full body and tightly wound tannins that resolve smoothly into a rich but fine finish. Long and concentrated flavors here. Drinkable now, but better to try from 2027.

The 2020 Barolo Bric Del Fiasc is jeweled red in color and has a great nose of cherry liqueur, violets, lavender, a touch of blueberry, sweet herbs, sweet earth, and balsamic, but it’s pure and fresh. Medium to full-bodied, it has a plush, velvety texture and lovely richness without feeling heavy, and it offers sweet tannins, notes of tea leaf, and a rounder feel, with a long finish. (AF)
