This is an extremely dark wine, inky black, and it smells of black plums, blackberries and black cherries. The palate shows a terrific display of said fruit with a savory blanket of spice and licorice thrown over it. The tannins are a bit tame, but that fault does make for an extremely sippable wine. It will pair nicely with pork or tomato-based dishes. — 4 years ago
Bigger than most Barbarescos… earthy and dry, some must, some spice. Lovely on the tongue. Light florals. Not overpowering. Classic Italian tart / cran. Even a lemony finish.
X-Mas gift from Tom& Sal from Le Volpi e l'Uva, Florence… their Northern Italian Wine Club this year. The rest of the case is headed for the cellar. — a year ago
Raspberry jam first. Then familiar Barolo. Nice
At Le Volpi e l’uva. Love this place

Asked for a glass that tastes like dirt and salt. — the waitress at Le Volpi e l’uva said that was “umami”. And for a Syrah, they nailed it. Big for Syrah. And “Umami”. Signature Syrah hint of sweetness.

На запах ягодки с конфетками, кислинка. На вкус компотно-кислотное, но низ сбалансирован конфетно-шоколадным (?) оттенком. Приятное и питибельное, не сложное. — 2 months ago
