The 2014 Barolo le Vigne is bright and fruit-forward

this is an estate to watch

with that Manuka honey lingering long on the finish

Various vineyards are named after members of the Catena family

focused and beautifully balanced finish

Bernard Burgaud, Cote Rotie Vintage:2009 The 2014 Barolo le VigneAgreeably fresh and spicy, with an aerial touch to the aromatics and a hint of cumin. Young at heart still, there are raspberry notes, a sappy fruitiness to the acidity and the tannins are very fine. Its neat and precise and drinking well now, theres no major hurry to drink up, but I'm not sure whether this will ever take on any great complexity.
