Un Barolo accessibile ma sorprendente. Il profumo è intenso e il palato molto soddisfacente. Spiccano facilmente i sentori fruttati di sottobosco, oltre alle note speziate tipiche del vitigno. In bocca risulta armonico e corposo, caratterizzato da tannini ben definiti e da un finale lungo .

Masser af kirsebær, hindbær, læder, mynte og chokolade. Når den åbner sig er den herlig fyldig med rimelig hård tannin og en fremragende lang finale. Skøn Barolo.

Palate density a hallmark as is elegance to go with its considerable drive. Lovely perfume. Long, long finish it is. Cherry, leather, earthy and spice notes. High tannin, high acidity, medium+ body. Great texture too.

Full bodied. Very Tannic, lasting flavor on the tongue. Initial notes of mushroom and oak. Slight blackberry and vanilla finish. Fantastic bottle.

Extremely dense and complex. Balsamic. A lot of mass in the mouth. cherry oak licorice mushroom. If you don't let him breath it is 0.2/0.4 points less

VivinoRick2023-07-22

A hint of leather and tobacco on the nose. For the palate, there's cherry, dark fruit and plum. The finnish is long, slightly tart and dry.

VivinoMartijn van Berkum2025-10-17

Very nice Barolo, pretty subtle and delicate. Aromas of red cherries, licorice, star anise, earth, and blood orange. On the palate it’s clean, pure, very fresh, with a typical Barolo structure - high acidity, big tannins and full body. 2016 is showing first signs of aging, bit of mushrooms, can go for a few more years, but not for an entire decade, I think.

VivinoHoward Yang2023-01-02

The forth Cru Barolo from the tasting line-up is Gabutti, this vineyard has clay soil which leads to a wine with more elegance and refinement, but this one will needs another 3-5 years, right now it is super tannic with high pitched acidity, medium body with ruby garnet color, nose smells of Morello cherry, pomegranate, raspberry, cranberry, red vine licorice, cinnamon and dried orange peel, mouth puckering with refined structure, tastes of dried strawberry, dried cranberry, maraschino cherry, c

2012. Decanted for an hour but was still tight and closed. The next hour was way better though. On the drier side but generally smooth tannin and nose of red fruits. Recommend decanting for a bit.

Il Sordo Barolo Gabitti Riserva rappresenta l'apice della produzione della cantina Sordo a Castiglione Falletto. Il formato Magnum (1,5 lt) è, per definizione, la scelta d'elezione per questa Riserva: la minor ossigenazione rispetto alla bottiglia standard permette un'evoluzione più lenta, preservando meglio la freschezza e la complessità aromatica nel tempo. Il cru Gabitti è noto per trovarsi in una posizione strategica a Castiglione Falletto

Medium body (light for a barolo) and medium red color…fruity earthy nose…crisp opening is notably tannic, tart, with leathery minerals that sustain to the finish…hints of dark fruit become more notable on the back end…and finish is predominantly tannic….what is expected for a Barolo, but on the lighter side…@[1|8182958|John Stankunas]@[1|58650344|Brian Adrian]@[1|31916478|Matthew Braunwart]@[1|59391960|Angela Addesso]

Happy Nebbiolo Memorial Day🇺🇸 Monday🍇. Dinner with great friends last week in 🇨🇦 with @[1|10538791|Adele Rubin-Herzenberg]. Beautiful medium garnet color, cherry and red fruit, plum vanilla baking spice prune and some oak. Med+ bodied earthy and very dry with firm tannins and high acidity. Excellent with mushroom risotto and bucatini con guanciale with black pepper tomato and pecorino romano cheese 😋. Photos on Instagram 📸🇮🇹🍷😎

Way way too early for this style Barolo. Confirmed by leaving the bottle open overnight. Really comes alive with complex notes and tough tannins. Try again in 10 years

VivinoGene Forrester2023-01-10

A bit light on the body but the taste is really good. Very easy to drink and will most likely go with any foods, especially pastas, vegetables, and hearty cheeses.

VivinoKim Dahl2018-11-17

I like Sordo's wines, and this Barolo is no exception. Violet and tar on the nose which are also included in the palate. together with cherry and peach

Vivinoctyrka2019-06-06

90/100 Pronounced ink and spawn on the nose. Palate is smoother than 2015 vintage. Wine is further, but personally thinner and lighter. Still aristocratic.

80/ 100(4/5)
VivinoMatt Moberg2020-12-15

Red cherry with notes of mulled plum. Barn wood, cedar and wet wet stone. Acidity and tannins have smoothed out and create a softer touch than traditional Barolo.

VivinoSean Brophy2018-01-21

Jammy fruits and fresh picked violets on the nose. Ripe plum and cherry up front, wonderfully dry throughout, with soft tannins that round out a deploy complex wine. Great value!

80/ 100(4/5)
VivinoChris S2023-12-11

2012. Medium-full body, medium-firm tannins, medium-firm acidity. Black cherry, oak, leather on the palate. A hint of anise and bacon on the nose, dark chocolate, blackberry preserves. Good now, can definitely last several more years in the bottle.

80/ 100(4/5)
VivinoPaolo Dutto2023-04-16

Not at its highest point. I expect it will improve with a couple more years of ageing (2023) Violet, black cherry, plum and some tobacco with a hint of pomegranate. Rotund, balanced tannins, smooth.

80/ 100(4/5)
VivinoJay Crawford2017-08-09

Nice brick red color. Candied fruit on the nose. Cherry, anise and nutmeg. Fine, well integrated tannins. Mineral and dry throughout, with just a hint of sweetness on a lasting finish. Not quite as big as other Barolo's I've had but excellent nonetheless.

80/ 100(4/5)
VivinoLisa H2019-06-14

Medium garnet. Some dust, spice, mushroom, earth on the nose. Palate is very strong MUSHROOMS, something like sautéed morels, very earthy. Slight oak notes (tobacco, wood, cocoa). Fruit, very recessive, is of dried strawberries and cherries. Some ashy minerals on the tongue. No funk. Light-to-medium bodied, medium-to-high tannins and medium acidity. Purchased January 2018.

80/ 100(4/5)
VivinoJesper Emil Mogensen2018-09-29

Started out a little raw with a tart acidity but became fully balanced during four hours of aeration. Floral and fragrant nose with rose petals, cherries, beet root and a whiff of shoe polish. Cherries, raspberries, and licorice on the young and juicy palate. Very dry finish but sometimes it’s good to get a tannic gum attack. Traditional style with no make-up. My first encounter with Sordo is a good one. Gabutti is a cru in Serralunga.

Nebbiolo nel cuore Roma '17 - Tra quelli di Sordo giovani, il mio terzo in classifica (1. Rocche 2. Perno 3. Gabutti 4. Monvigliero)

70/ 100(3.5/5)
VivinoStefano Quaglierini2017-11-13

Un ottimo Barolo che non spicca per eccellenza ma si attesta comunque come una buona espressione del nebbiolone del frutto. Profumi fruttati intensi (mora, ciliegia) con note floreali e speziate dolci (vaniglia, tabacco), sul palato entra morbido ma rimane austero per l'acidità e i tannini ma che rimangono comunque ben integrati nel complesso. Ovviamente come tutti i Barolo dovremo aspettare qualche anno per poterne assaporare al meglio la massima espressione
