97/100 Punkte Robert Parker August 31, 2017

Formerly known as Barolo Cannubi Boschis (the last vintage by that name was 2012), the 2013 Barolo Aleste has been renamed to honor the youngestgeneration of the Sandrone family, Alessia and Stefano. The wine nameAleste takes the first three letters from each grandchild's name. Themove represents the culmination of more than 50 harvests completed bythis legendary winemaker and his desire to pass on the torch. Hisgrandchildren are at different points in their respective viticultureand enology university studies. Now under a different name, the wineobviously shows the same delicate floral nuances that you get with thiswine (fruit from Cannubi is always harvested first). This is a completeand exciting wine with delicate notes of wild berry and smoke backed bylicorice and blue flower.
