Albe Barolo Nebbiolo 2010
this guy's in a sweet spot right now. it's not terribly heavy handed, so it's surprisingly age appropriate. I scored one for $40 and that shouldn't be a thing.
Paolo Scavino
Monvigliero Barolo Nebbiolo 2010
Nose of roasted cherry, leather, root beer. Silky mouthfeel with black fruit and flowers. Still super young

in a word: harmonious. fruit, texture.. beautiful secondary notes - floral. wish I stayed for seconds and took notes.
agreed - glad I grabbed a taste on the way out. GOT refresher was embarrassingly desperately needed. we'll stick around next time. :)

Chappellet merlot 2011.. @Delectable Wine ...you had it correct initially
Ceretto
Barolo Nebbiolo 2010
true grit. obviously could use time but has balls without flaunting them on the back of a pickup truck. very nice.
L'Aventure
Estate Cuvée Paso Robles Red Blend 2012
Black fruit, tar, black pepper, baking spices. Complex but wound up.
