Score 90/100 · Drink 2013-2020, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Oct 2012

An excellent choice for near and medium-term drinking, Rinaldi's 2008 Barolo combines lovely depth of fruit with the vibrant acidity and expressive aromatics that are the signatures of the year. Sweet red cherries, plums, crushed rocks and flowers emerge from this effortless, gorgeous wine. There is a centerdeness to the straight Barolo that is impossible to miss. This is an impressive showing for an entry-level Barolo.
