"I wrote a fair bit about the superb Oddero Baroli from this era back in October of 2010, when reporting on a comparative tasting of the legendary 1971, 1964 and 1958 vintages in the Langhe. I love the Oddero wines from this era (not that the new releases are not anything but superb as well!) and these are some of the best-kept secrets out there today for Barolo from this era. The 1967 is a beautiful and utterly refined bottle of mature Barolo, offering up a very complex and captivating bouquet of cherries, oranges, woodsmoke, gamebirds, coffee, oregano, gentle tariness and leather. On the palate the wine is deep, pure and seamless, with its full-bodied format perfectly resolved today. The wine has superb intensity at the core, excellent complexity and focus and a very long, tangy and beautifully balanced finish. This is a superb bottle of Barolo at its peak of maturity."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
The 'King of Wines,' a powerful, tannic and perfumed Nebbiolo from Piedmont's Langhe hills, celebrated for tar-and-roses aromatics and extraordinary aging potential.
Produces pale but powerfully tannic and perfumed reds with tar, rose and cherry notes. The grape behind Barolo and Barbaresco, it is among the most age-worthy in the world.
