Nice, savory Nebbiolo although more purple than brick colored. Fresh, mineral, wet steel, dried roses & violets, touch of tar & tobacco. Good price for a Gattinara, although NV. From Main Street Wine and Gourmet, Orleans. 06/06/21 — 4 years ago
2006 vintage. Yo ho yo ho mateys! Not the greatest SoRhô vintage but a fairly decent producer aboard. Overt fruit influence gonzo. Dark and dense with plenty of years on the plank. Spicy finish with a solid dose of tannins afoot. Bigger body than anticipated. Definitely not a lean machine at this point and closer to medium-hevvy bod. Think Deep Purple In Rock vs Machine Head. If you know, you know. Hope that helped. Maybe not. Regardless, phenomenal juice and worth a visit/voyage down the ole heavy metal pipeline. Watch out for those Jon Lord organ interludes.

Burnt sugar, clove, orchid nose. Three distinct tasting notes. Notes of fig, well loved leather (e.g. a leather chair or a leather jacket), pomegranate. Opened up super well. Drank at The Tell Me Bar in New Orleans. — 2 years ago

Young and not so expensive, delicious for a Barolo at this price ($38). Lots of roses, good acidity in the tar, nice tannins, steel, dark cherry, light leather, touch of black pepper, dirt next to a mushroom. A touch lighter than typical Barolo.
