    Wine Advocate, August 2019

    "Showing a medium garnet color with dim copper highlights, the 2015 Barolo offers pretty aromas of candied fruit, dried raspberry and cassis. Those bright and buoyant aromas are followed by subtle tones of licorice, dried herb, mint and medicinal herb. This Nebbiolo-based wine from Coppo boasts very good overall precision and elegance."

    "A lifted nose of strawberry compote, balsamic and redcurrant reduction with some leather. Full-bodied with plenty of fruit and resolved tannins. Drink now."

    "The Coppo 2011 Barolo opens to a pretty garnet color with light ruby highlights. The bouquet delivers some fruit ripeness with blackberry preserves and dried cherry. Tobacco, spice and licorice add balance and weight to the wine's powerful flavor profile."

    "Pressed iris, scorched earth, ripe berry and cake spice lead the way. The juicy palate delivers wild cherry, raspberry, clove, cinnamon and tobacco alongside fresh acidity and polished tannins. It’s almost approachable but will be even better in a couple of years. Drink 2017–2022."

    "The 2010 Barolo adopts a traditional and quiet approach to Nebbiolo. The wine opens to pretty nuances of pressed violets, tar, licorice and tilled earth. In terms of mouthfeel, this Barolo delivers a mid-weight approach with elegant and ethereal lightness."

    "Underbrush, violet, wild berry, menthol and sweet pipe tobacco aromas lead the way on this vibrant wine. The sleek palate doles out juicy wild cherries, baking spices and crushed herbs, while fresh acidity and a network of polished tannins provide backup. Drink 2016–2025."
