B‑21 normally has excellent service. The shipments apparently got a little behind for the holidays in the year 2024. There were some confusion in three of my orders, but eventually this was cleared up after the new year.

Great place to order wine. I order when it is free shipping and I send it to a local business so I don’t have to wait around to sign for the wine. They have very good prices and a great selection. Very happy to do business with them.

Excellent company. Great prices. Prompt shipments. Everything arrives perfectly packaged to avoid damage. On the 21st of each month, they have a "Free Shipping" offer, subject to minimum purchase levels. No... I don't work for them! Just a happy customer.

I really like their free shipping which they offer once a month, but I am a bit disappointed that it doesn’t include slightly lower priced cases of wine even when you’re ordering additional higher price cases.

2018 Giovanni Manzone Barolo Bricat (750ml)

Nebbiolo from Barolo, Piedmont, Italy

B-21 Top Recommendation

“A small producer who does magic with Nebbiolo” Wine Spectator

Crafted for lovers of classically styled Barolo, the elegant 95 pt. 2018 Giovanni Manzone Barolo Castelletto reveals engaging floral aromas and fresh, earthy dark red fruit with bright acidity and fine-grained, integrated tannins, an exceptional value from one of Piedmont’s “greatest under the radar gems” according to Vinous critic Antonio Galloni, promising years of enjoyment for Nebbiolo lovers and anyone looking to enjoy outstanding Cru Barolo more often.

Established nearly a century ago, the family run Giovanni Manzone winery is located at the top of a hill in Monforte d’Alba surrounded by estate vineyards spanning 8 hectares, now led by sixth generation winemaker Mauro and his sister Mirello working alongside their father Giovanni. Situated on a steep, sloping hillside at 450 meters above sea level, the estate’s one-hectare, high altitude Castelletto vineyard has been sustainably farmed without chemicals or pesticides for decades, its Nebbiolo vines planted in stony, limestone-rich marl that results in naturally lower yields. Fermented naturally with indigenous yeasts, the 2018 Barolo Castelletto was traditionally aged in large Slavonian oak casks for three years, followed by some resting time in concrete before bottling without filtering or fining, yielding lush aromas and textures in a muscular, finessed Barolo described as “a robust expression of Nebbiolo” by the Wine Advocate’s Monica Larner with over a decade of longevity ahead.

From a vintage producing "delicious, open-knit and approachable wines" according to Decanter, the seductive 95 pt. 2018 Giovanni Manzone Barolo Castelletto offers intensely aromatic fruit with silky tannins and notable complexity that’s charming in its youth but promising to age gracefully for years, a chance for Barolo aficionados to stock the cellar with beautifully crafted Nebbiolo at a bargain price and enjoy it often over the next five, ten or fifteen years.

The 2018 Barolo Bricat is a gorgeous, classy wine. Dried herbs, pine, menthol, spice and licorice give the 2018 tons of aromatic complexity to play off its red cherry fruit. The Bricat is a touch nervy in 2018. I would give it a few years to come together a bit more fully. Even so, it is impressive, especially for the vintage.

93 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous (Oct 2022)

The 2018 Barolo Bricat leans toward full-bodied concentration (on the Nebbiolo scale) but stops a bit short of that with a leaner mid-palate performance that is characteristic of this vintage. The wine does deliver a pretty good ride along the way with dark fruit, earthy or ferrous tones and spicy toasted oak.

92 points, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate (Aug 2022)
