Reviewed April 2010A wine with really lovely fruit and a citrus and berry character. Full body, with firm tannins and a juicy finish. Long and delicious. So pretty, balanced. Drink now. So right now.

Wine Spectator
This medium-weight red boasts flavors of cherry, currant, tar and earth. Though rich, this shows an element of austerity on the firm finish. Best from 2014 through 2022.
Notes
A great introduction to Barolo that won't make it feel like your wallet is hemorrhaging, the Cantine Ascheri has Nebbiolo's classic rose and tar aromas underpinned with lots of exotic spice and hints of camphor. On the palate, there's lovely red fruit with hints of anise delivered on a bed of acidity and well-integrated tannins. "Classic, old school Barolo at a steal of a price. Highly recommended." (Chris Miller, K&L Italian Wine Specialist)
