Roberto Voerzio Barolo 2020
96 POINTS! One of the most sought-after names in the Italian wine game today – and we teamed up for ANOTHER special bottle only available from us – this time for a BAROLO from the famed vines of his LA MORRA vines!
Roberto, Roberto…how I LOVE thee!!! Just think – one fortuitous luncheon in Napa, a magical, bucket-list visit to his mad-scientist’s laboratory/winery in Piemonte…and BOOM! Three, yes, THREE utterly incredible Last Bottle exclusive vinos from one of the tippy-top BEST winemakers in Piemonte. You flipped for the Barbera d’Alba, and gasped for the Langhe Nebbiolo…get ready to kiss your sanity farewell for this BAROLO!
The KING of Italian wines, crafted by one of the crown princes of Piemonte – Roberto Voerzio, are you for REAL?!?! Yes…so much YES! I’m writing this furtively from under my desk, with the blinds drawn, and the lights off – ‘cause I cannot stand to share a single DROP of this glorious nectar with even my work besties…let alone my colleagues, co-workers, FedEx delivery guy, and my dreaded company nemesis!
The wine, you say? At 63% OFF? Madness. Classic Barolo iron-fist-velvet-glove cliché deftly applies here – roses and lavender, pretty red berries, leading into deeply complex and intense notes of smoked meats, savory graphite, black volcanic earth, and a long, dusty trail ride through the American Southwest finish. The core is juicy and generous – absolutely overflowing with raspberries, and red plums, red cherries, and blood orange, with tingly pomegranates, and…AND! Think Golden Era of Hollywood (Both Hepburns, Grace Kelly, Bette Davis) levels of elegance, coupled with the sort of brute force and overt power of the 80s Schwarzenegger/Stallone/Van Damme blockbusters. But, you know – integrated in perfect, pulsating harmony like the color palette in a Wes Anderson flick. Got THAT?! Just immensely KILLER stuff, is what I’m trying to say…I mean, you saw the whole 96 POINTS thing, right?
And that’s just the start of it. This 100% Nebbiolo fruit hails from a PREMIER and pristine plot in his La Morra cru holdings, blended carefully by a winemaking wizard at the very peak of his powers. Roberto’s typical baseline Barolo – if you’re lucky enough to even find it at one of the handful of shops in the USA that get an allocation – STARTS at $159 a bottle for this killer 2020 vintage…so UNDER $60 is the sort of epic that would make Gilgamesh weep! Dry those eyes, good people – ‘cause if you’re gonna catch this…you better MOVE!
While it lasts! There is NOT enough!
** Side note: I don’t actually have a company nemesis…anymore, at least. (Cue nefarious snicker and knowing glance.) **
