94pts Wine Enthusiast

Iris, violet and ripe dark-skinned fruit aromas mingle with whiffs of leather and pipe tobacco. The full-bodied palate features prune, dried cherry and licorice alongside velvety tannins. Drink through 2029. 

93pts James Suckling

Quite a jovial nose of black fruit, violets and nuts. Full-bodied with compact and intense fruit and savory flavors. The tannins are solid but backspaced. The finish is long and intense. This has years ahead of it, so cellar at least until 2025.

92pts Wine Spectator

Open and approachable, if barely settling into a long plateau of drinkability. Offers cherry, strawberry, earth, tobacco, white pepper and menthol flavors, which ply the sinewy texture and linger on the mineral-tinged finish. Best from 2024 through 2040. 1,000 cases made, 300 cases imported.

Vinous

The 2017 Barolo Liste is the most potent and brooding wine in this range. Iron, smoke, gravel, dried herbs, menthol and licorice add to an impression of gravitas. Huge tannins envelop the muscular finish.

Tasting Notes

Deep ruby red color with garnet highlights. A wine that needs a few moments to express its full potential, but which reveals a great complexity to the nose, hints of ripe red fruit and incense. On the palate a tight and long sip, a vibrant tannin. A deep, tumultuous and incisive wine.

Barolo goes well with important dishes, such as traditional Piedmontese meat main courses. Ranging from world traditions, there is gulasch in Eastern Europe. Going to Japan instead for example fish, such as Black Cod (Alaskan fish marinated with sugar, sake, miso). Moving to The United States of America, beef (angus, wagyu, bue nostral, longhorn) in the brisket cut. One recipe is, for example, onion stout beef. But if you have the pleasure, even a simple “special” toast is perfect!

Vineyard Notes

The cru orginated around 13 millon years ago due to erosion of the overlying terrain. As a result its composition differs slightly from the other lanhe lands. Liste essentially acquired acompletion of macro and micro elements that give the future wine an unequalled complexity and longevity. Highly visible from the curves of the secondary road that rises from Barolo towards the old Castello della Volta, the vineyards of this renowed cru cover around 6.75 hectares, with a southern exposureand an altitude that varies from 270 to 330 meters above sea level.
