Convento Barolo Nebbiolo 2017

9.3

2017 vintage. FLB fodder. Decanted and tasted after 15 mins, 45 mins and 1.25 hours. Medium body. Fairly muddy color. A parlor trick of rose petals and tar up front with a battle to the death, both mid and end palates, between chalk and dark chocolate. Chalk won. Not what I would call refined but made up for that with plenty of rusticity/old school/authenticity vibes. Apparently, I liked it more than anyone else here but a bonus .2 for the retro-stylings.

1961 Oddero Barolo, pristine bottle with interesting neck tag. Gorgeous mature nose, dark cherries, brown sugar, leather, earth, charred wood. Silky palate, ripe sweet red fruits, dense mid palate, resolved tannins, perfect acidity. Excellent. #odderobarolo #oddero — 7 years ago

Recommended by Luigi at Marechiaro in Gallipoli. Negroamaro does shine through well here. — 11 years ago

I certainly need more experience with #barbaresco but this was a lovely wine, #nebbiolo 🌹, bright fruit, red floral notes are there but much more subtle tar and earth notes with soft tannins and some lip-smacking quality on the finish. — 10 months ago
