The 2014 Luciano Sandrone Barolo Aleste Sibi et Paucis Magnum (1500ml) is a distinguished single-vineyard Barolo from the renowned Aleste cru in Barolo DOCG. Produced in limited quantities and presented in a magnum format, it showcases Luciano Sandrone's meticulous approach to Nebbiolo, combining finesse, structure and remarkable ageing potential. The nose reveals aromas of red cherry, dried rose and raspberry, layered with notes of liquorice, sweet spice, tobacco and subtle earthy complexity.
On the palate, it is full-bodied with vibrant acidity and finely woven tannins that provide both elegance and structure. Flavours of red berries, savoury herbs, spice and mineral notes lead to a long, persistent finish, while the magnum format encourages slow, graceful bottle development.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this rare magnum is an exceptional choice for Barolo collectors and lovers of mature Nebbiolo. Enjoy with braised beef, venison, truffle risotto, slow-roasted lamb or aged Parmigiano Reggiano. Drink now with decanting or cellar for the next 15–20 years as the wine continues to evolve.
