Case Nere is a pristine and balanced expression of Nebbiolo from a sheltered vineyard in La Morra that maintains exceptional heat for ripe black fruit development. Aged 15 months in 70% new French oak, then an additional 15 months in large used casks, it delivers intense red and black fruit aromas layered with sweet spice, tar, smoke and licorice notes. The full-bodied structure reveals soft, integrated tannins and a pleasant spicy finish. An excellent example of how terroir and careful oak aging can create complexity without losing Nebbiolo's delicate fruit character.

Antonio Galloni

93 points

"The 2016 Barolo Case Nere is a dark, mysterious wine. Black cherry, incense, licorice, gravel and smoke all give the Case Nere its beguiling aromatic profile. Deep and expressive, yet also light on its feet, the Case Nere offers tons of nuance as well as personality." —Antonio Galloni

Robert Parker

94 points

"The Case Nere site in La Morra sees a mix of silt and clays soil. One adds freshness and aromatic intensity and the other adds structure. The Enzo Boglietti 2016 Barolo Case Nere is a pristine and balanced expression of Nebbiolo with delicate fruit tones backed by tar, smoke and licorice. You also get some floral aromas that are not unusual in wines that come from La Morra." —Monica Larner

Wine Spectator

93 points

"Subtle, yet pure notes of cherry, strawberry, rose, woodsy underbrush and tobacco highlight this complex red. It's firmly structured and vibrant, with a lingering aftertaste of berries, mineral and tobacco."
