Barolo Nebbiolo

2013 hoists this producer stratospherically. Great wine with integrated tannins. Meaty nose of cured and sliced roast beef and black pepper; tinged brown-brick from its 10 year slumber; cigar wrap, and roulade, graphite and smoke, and just barely, dried, black mushroom and rose petal. The palate is lush. Cherry soft, raspberry reduction, shows round but pronounced tannic dunes. Our tar is integrated, chicory peeks forth, the pepper submerged in a perfect expression of varietal and vintage. Solid work Arpatin (winks at Mother Nature)!

But if nice Neb character. Pretty and grippy but lacking punch

Very happy with this wine. Drinks easily and it is light on the palette. My first Barolo and I think I'm a fan...need to try more but this was definitely a good sip

Sour cherries, menthol. Well balanced. Smooth as a baby's arse.
