Boroli 2004 Villero Nebbiolo (Barolo)
- $71
Boroli presents yet another ace with its Villero. There’s more to chew on here compared to your standard Barolo and the wine boasts roundness and power. It’s a modern, luscious interpretation with creamy vanilla and soft spice lavished over aromas of wild berry and plum. It has the tannins to cut through béchamel sauce.

Boroli 2005 Villero Nebbiolo (Barolo)
- $71
Barolo Villero is one of those “Wow!” wines that seduces you off the bat thanks to the intensity and purity of its aromas. The wine is decadently redolent of chocolate fudge, toasted coffee bean and creamy vanilla. The fruit nuances come off as cherry and blueberry. It’s round, supple and gorgeous in the mouth. Drink in 10-plus years.

Boroli 2005 Cerequio Nebbiolo (Barolo)
- $79
Plush, soft and redolent of smoked ham, spice, black fruit and chocolate, this expression of the Cerequio cru shows both elegance and power. The wine is well extracted, fresh and firm thanks to the high quality of its tannins and acidity. It ends with firm, cooling notes that would pair well with any meat dish. Drink after 2018.

Boroli 2006 Cerequio Nebbiolo (Barolo)
- $80
Boroli is a young and dynamic winery to watch. This Barolo from the gorgeous Cerequio cru is ripe with traditional aromas of wild berry, leather, soft spice and white truffle. Extra character is added by slightly oddball aromas of carrot and smoked ham that work overall to the wine’s favor. Drink after 2015.

Boroli 1998 Nebbiolo (Barolo)
- $38
This well-priced offering got off to a slow start in our tasting. Gradually it opened up to reveal lots of oak influence—toast, vanilla, maple syrup and even some dill. But what really impressed were flavors of black cherries and tar that glided across the palate upon masses of soft, enveloping tannins.

Boroli 2004 Nebbiolo (Barolo)
- Editors' Choice
- $51
It’s hard to find Barolo under $40 and this base Barolo from Silvano and Elena Boroli in Castiglione Falletto delivers all the sophistication of the territory at an attractive price point. Pretty aromas include forest floor, wild berry, leather, spice, mineral, ash and dried herbs. The wine is tight and slightly astringent with a long menthol finish. Drink 2015 to 2020.

Boroli 2005 Nebbiolo (Barolo)
- $51
The nose of this New World Barolo offers a perfect balance of chocolate and bright red berry fruit. It tastes soft and plush in the mouth and although there’s less density here than some of the more thickly extracted Barolos, it most definitely holds its own. Drink 2015–2025.
