This is a fine set of wines from Roberto Voerzio. Over the last decade or so, Voerzio has radically changed the style of his Barolos. It's been a gradual transition, but today's wines are far more translucent, medium in body and, for lack of a better word, classic than the wines of the past, the wines that made him famous. I enjoyed these wines, but frankly, I liked the wines more when they were opulent and exotic. Don't get me wrong, these current releases are outstanding, but the wines just aren't as unique as they used to be.

Roberto Voerzio's 2014 Barolos are gorgeous. The cool vintage and Voerzio's own move toward a more restrained style have resulted in a set of Barolos that speak more to nuance than the sheer textural lushness readers have come to expect. But Barolo doesn't need power or huge fruit to develop well in bottle, as Voerzio proved many years ago with his 1991s and 1992s. In addition to these wines, Voerzio made a Barolo Torriglione (500 magnums) and a Barolo Sarmassa (400 magnums), as well as a Riserva from Case Nere, that I did not taste.
