Nose: so elegantly floral. So nebbiolo. Deep.

Palate: so silky. Elegant. Supple early season cherry. Still fresh but has integrates perfectly.

Classic nose. Spice, tar, roses, cherry, large Slavonian oak, opulence in the mid palate. So pure and fresh, juicy, pure, balanced and deep. It has an uncommon depth. Super aromatic. So old school. Opulent but also insane acidity that cuts it like a knife. Very pure. Good depth. Crunchy. Elegant. Concentrated. Long finish. Will age 20 years. Loads of spice. Gaining more balance and juiciness. — 5 years ago

Riserva Rio Sordo Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2009

Really a wonderful barbaresco riserva. Should have bought more than one bottle. Lots of sediment, so a decant is in order. Wonderfully deep nose, so velvety on the palate. Nice long finish. Just enough refreshing acid too - could have used a smidge more but still very nice. Great pairing with Allen brothers duroc pork chops. — 2 years ago

This was a first for us - my wife’s uncle gave us a gift card for Christmas. I wasn’t that impressed with the prime beef (relative to what I get in the city) but the pork chops were great.

Nose is beautiful. Softened cherry fruit.

Palate is still fresh. Cherries. Some spice. Still tannic.
