Floral scents with hints of tar are predominant on the nose. Background of dried strawberries are there too. Lighter in weight. Acidity is fresh, as this pairs well with pork. Tannins are soft and suggest this is a drink now or soon play. If your looking for a Nebbiolo that's softer and more feminine, this is a nice option and delivers well for the price point (sub $25)

Franco Serra Barolo DOCG 2016: Medium plus acidity. Medium tannins. Red fruits. Dried herbs. Earth. Leather. Tobacco. Long, silky smooth finish. This young Barolo was a pleasant surprise as my expectations were low (due to its age) however I was very wrong. It had great intense aromas & flavors, reflecting the characteristics of a finer quality wine. For me, it was a definite crowd pleaser with an amazing QPR! Cheers🍷
