The 2012 Barolo Otin Fiorin Piè Rupestris - Nebioli has really gained in weight and stature since I last tasted it. On this night, the 2012 impresses with its substance and stature, qualities that emerge fully with a bit of time in the glass. The 2012 continues to come together during this early part of its life. It is one of the positive surprises of the evening. (10.2020)
The 2012 Barolo Barolo Rupestris is super-refined and nuanced. Expressive floral notes and bright, red-toned fruit lift from the glass in this very pretty, elegant Rupestris. Silky tannins add to the wine's considerable appeal. In most vintages, Rupestris is a bigger wine, but the 2012 is especially elegant. The 2012 captures the essence of what makes Barolo such a compelling wine - above all else, power without excess weight. Stated simply, the 2012 is a total knockout. Although it is early, at this stage I prefer it slightly to the Franco. (11.2017)
