Giuseppe Rinaldi is the reference point for traditional Barolo, and Brunate is one of the great crus, a south-facing amphitheater in La Morra that was prized long before anyone drew official boundaries. The house style has never chased power: long macerations, big old casks, no cosmetics, and Nebbiolo left to say what it wants to say. 2014 was a cool, demanding year that rewarded growers who farmed carefully, and it produced Barolo on the perfumed, finely drawn end of the spectrum rather than the muscular one. Production here has always been small and the wines have always been sought after. Give it a long decant, or give it more years in the cellar.

Antonio Galloni

"A Barolo of midweight structure and persistence, the 2014 Brunate comes across as a wine that will drink well with minimal cellaring. The 2014 offers fine balance in a decidedly gracious, understated style. Naturally, the dimension and breadth of the very best years aren't quite there." —Antonio Galloni

Wine Spectator

"Tart strawberry and currant fruit flavors highlight this sleek red. Leather, wet loam, sandalwood and iron notes chime in, while the long finish features crisp acidity and refined tannins, echoing the wild berry fruit."

"Aromas of rose mingle with wild herb, underbrush and balsamic notes of eucalyptus on this perfumed red. Elegant and racy, the graceful - almost ethereal - palate delivers strawberry, pomegranate, steely mineral and white pepper alongside polished tannins. Drink through 2026." —Kerin O'Keefe

More about Giuseppe Rinaldi

A true legend in the commune of Barolo, Beppe Rinaldi was the last of the “Last of the Mohicans” – the others were Bartolo Mascarello and Teobaldo Cappellano – who resisted modern trends. Sadly, he died in 2018 at a still young 69, and the estate is now run by his daughters Marta and Carlotta (the winemaker and farmer, respectively), who are extremely worthy successors. Like Bartolo Mascarello, Beppe believed in the magic of blending different sites, but EU labeling laws forced him to make some compromises. They now release a Brunate, which is 85% Brunate and the rest Le Coste, and a “Tre Tine”, which is a blend of their remaining grapes from Le Coste, plus San Lorenzo and Ravera. They also have a range of wines from lesser grapes that are excellent but rarely seen in the United States because they are not imported via regular channels.
