Was able to enjoy the 2017 Elvio Cogno Revera Barolo this weekend from Novello, Italy.
On the nose are beautiful notes of cherry, strawberry, plum, floral notes, underbrush, spice, balsamic, menthol and dried earth.
On the palate is lovely cherry notes, strawberry, raspberry, licorice, menthol, brick, tar, minerality and dry earth.
This wine is full bodied with a fresh voluptuous mouthfeel medium + acidity and medium + to high mouthcoating crunchy tannins that smoothly moves into a long red fruit earthy finish. The weekend is almost at end and the week ahead holds optimism, hope and excitement. Let is all be optimistic and please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 2 years ago
A bold fruity nose of goji berries, raspberry, long leaf pine and candied red fruits. The flavors are bold and lingering fruit, with a gentle tannin, and vegetal finish. Gentle sweetness on the start and Mid palate, with a pale red color of raspberry jam. — 4 years ago
