The Story

The 2020 Aleste Barolo is surprisingly generous at such a young age. The nose is all red fruits and flowers, with notes of earth and minerals. On the palate, the tannins are more pronounced, with copious fruit and fresh acidity.

97 Points - J

Cherry and hibiscus aromas with hints of tar and dried flowers such as roses. Full-bodied and layered, with lots of juicy and rich fruit showing the warmth of the vintage, yet it’s framed with creamy and chewy tannins that give it form and intensity. A very serious and structured 2020.

96 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The Luciano Sandrone 2020 Barolo Aleste (with 10,000 bottles released) is layered with sweet earth and drunken cherry. It shows seamless integration and a crescendo of intensity that starts with ripe fruit and dovetails into oak elements, licorice, spice and balanced acidity. This wine is very beautiful in terms of mouthfeel, with length and complexity. Aleste is made with fruit from Cannubi Boschis in the village of Barolo. This is the full monty.

95 Points -

This wine captivates as aromas of rose petals in oil and Maresca cherries, layered with incense notes lift from the glass. The palate is intense, dark, and rich, offering a mouthfilling experience of dark plums and an abundance of mixed sweet spices countered by dried bay leaf and black tea. The wine finishes with elegant tannins and lifted acidity. Drink Now - 2045.

95 Points -

This red shows breadth to its cherry, plum, tar, eucalyptus and sweet spice flavors, with an accent of licorice. Walks a tightrope between power and elegance, with a well-integrated structure, refined tannins and a racy, resonant finish. Best from 2028 through 2048.

95 Points - 

The 2020 Barolo Aleste is a classy, elegant wine that will drink well right out of the gate. Black cherry, plum, mocha, licorice and dark spice resonate beautifully. Soft and succulent, with silky tannins, the 2020 Aleste is a total charmer.

94 Points -

A deeper brick color, the 2020 Barolo Aleste is also darker and more introspective on the nose, with notes of fresh leather, baked cherries, dark stones, and umami richness in its hint of porcini. It expands on the palate, with ripe, broad tannins, good freshness, a rich texture, and a long finish. Although it’s a riper wine.
