Father and son team Fabio and Andrea Oberto make soft, forward Barolos that typically drink well upon release. That is certainly the case with the 2011s, all wines that are forward and juicy, both Oberto signatures. The 2011s were aged mostly in a combination of French oak barriques and larger 16 and 25HL casks.

Andrea Oberto's 2011 Barolos capture the richer, more opulent side of the vintage. It will be interesting to see how the wines respond to bottling. Today the 2011s are all about volume, ripeness and size.
