"Barolo Unoperuno er fremstillet første gang i 2011 og frem til og med 2013 med druer fra Arborina, der er ikke lavet en 2014’er og fra 2015 anvendes druer fra Arborina, Cerretta og Cannubi. Denne Barolo er Silvias projekt, der går ud på at druerne afstilkes i hånden, en for en, uno per uno, og det er både en minutiøs og bekostelig praksis, der giver en Barolo med et ganske enestående, rent frugtudtryk, der viser hvor meget blad- og stilkrester betyder for aromaprofilen i en Barolo i form af vegetale noter og speziatura." Adriat
"Sattes, leuchtendes Rubin mit feinem Granatschimmer. Kühle und einprägsame Nase, zeigt Noten nach Himbeere und Brombeere, reife Kirsche, dazu Noten nach Tee und Tabak. Rund und geschmeidig in Ansatz und Verlauf, reife, klare Frucht, viel Brombeere, dunkle Kirschen, feiner Schmelz, öffnet sich mit feinmaschigem Tannin, saftig und lange." Falstaff 98p
"The result of extreme hand de-stemming, the 2013 Barolo Unoperuno is assembled berry-by-berry. Fruit comes from the estate's celebrated Arborina vineyard. This wine was not produced in 2014 (because yields were so low). Starting in 2015, it will also include fruit blended in from Cannubi, Cerretta and other sites. This edition shows a wonderful sense of precision and focus with subtle mineral intensity at the back of dried fruit, tobacco, moist earth and toasted hazelnut. Only 1,500 bottles are made. The labor required to make this wine is intense. It takes a full week to complete the hand de-stemming process in which each berry is picked off individually ("uno per uno"). The must undergoes a ten-day maceration period. To innovator Elio Altare, this is his interpretation of a "traditional" Barolo." Robert Parker 95p
