Poderi Colla 2004 Costa Bruna Barbera (Barbera d'Alba)

Price $23

A big wine that has plenty of oak, some blueberry fruit and spices. It is promising on the palate, if a little clumsy, but shows good structure and length. — M.G. (4/1/2007)

Poderi Colla 2006 Pian Balbo Dolcetto (Dolcetto d'Alba)

Online Exclusive

Price $18

Muscular tannins nearly mask raspberry and cherry notes in this structured red. The juicy palate leads to a fairly long, earthy finish. Drink with pepperoni and sausage pizza. — W.E. (2/1/2010)

points

Poderi Colla 2008 Pian Balbo Dolcetto (Dolcetto d'Alba)

Price $18

Here’s a subdued and understated Dolcetto that has been executed in a lighter, fruit-forward style with informal appeal and sour tannins on the close. You’ll recognize aromas of dark fruit, berries and fresh spice. — M.L. (9/1/2010)

points

Poderi Colla 2000 Bricco del Drago Red (Langhe)

Price $35

This blend of 85% Dolcetto and 15% Nebbiolo is certainly soft and lush, but ends up tasting more like expensive oak than fruit. If vanilla, toast and dried spices ring your chimes, go for it. — J.C. (11/15/2004)

points

Poderi Colla 2004 Nebbiolo (Nebbiolo d'Alba)

Price $26

The nose was interesting; earthy with plenty of plummy fruit and a touch of musk. On the palate, with the fruit more muted, the earthiness became more apparent, and what fruit remained thinned out even more as it reached the finish. — M.G. (12/31/2007)

points

Poderi Colla 1996 Dolcetto (Dolcetto d'Alba)

Price $17

Lean, woody and astringent. Light fruit and spice notes. Lacks intensity. For a Dolcetto, it’s already too old. — W.E. (4/1/2000)

points

Poderi Colla 2005 Pian Balbo Dolcetto (Dolcetto d'Alba)

Price $16

The Colla offers a pleasant nose of bright fruit, but on the palate the wine is light and lacks complexity. Easy drinking, but with not enough structure to hold the wine together. Drink soon. — M.G. (12/31/2007)
