Cantina Terre del Barolo
Barolo Nebbiolo
Solid but not earth shattering. Not kicking it out of bed.

Apr 6th, 20242015 (375 ml). Nice surprise. Tart red cherry fruit, minerals, slight tertiaries (mushrooms? roses?) with well-integrated tannins. Takes 3-4 hours to fully show but solid Barolo example for the money, good with food. 30-35.

Dec 22nd, 2019Exploding with spice and minerals. Very light texture with a lot of body. Tastes great, similar to cabernet savignon but lighter

Jun 18th, 2018Break out the Pythagorean Theorem, good god almighty these grapes are angular. Pot hole city. Aroma of steaming asphalt and strawberry shortcake. Tannins popping like the top of a Maserati. Do you have a compass? Cause I’m lost in the sauce in Italia.
