Rating: Robert Parker 91/100
"The 2008 Barolo Serralunga is one of the most interesting Barolo wines for this price. It shows the richness of the house, the style of the Serralunga cru with an accessible personality that makes it a pure delight to drink. Hints of black cherry, plum, spice and new leather coat the palate with an intense, powerful finish." (Wine Advocate April 2012 - Robert Parker)
