The 2014 Barolo sets off with some ripe and soft aromas that come as a surprise given the cool growing season. The 2014 vintage saw heat in the week leading up to harvest, and that last-minute heat wave has done a lot to shape this Barolo. Dried cherry and cassis segue to wild rose, tar and grilled anise seed. The mouthfeel is watery and lean.In Bond£152.00 -

Of Fratelli Serio & Battista Borgogno's newest releases, the 2014 Barolo Cannubi is the most promising. Despite the difficult vintage, this wine shows integrated fruit with bright layers of sour cherry and cranberry. The mouthfeel is mild and thin, but you don't get that sourness that I tasted in previous editions. This vintage shows a clean and fresh approach instead. The wine is fermented in wood and then aged in large Slavonian oak casks. Some 15,000 bottles were produced (a healthy number for this vintage).In Bond£171.13 -

Red berry, violet, forest floor, vanilla and balsamic aromas of menthol and camphor slowly appear on this stunning, radiant red along with whiffs of charcuterie. The vibrant, focused palate is young and taut but already impeccably balanced, evoking juicy red cherry, pomegranate, star anise and cool mint framed in firm acidity and tightly knit but fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity. It's already fantastic but will hold for even more complexity. Best 2026–2036.In Bond£123.00 -
