Barolo Nebbiolo

Bright cherry, intense plummy fruit with violets and wild herbs. Real supple clean fruit with lovely acidity. Young, but very approachable if primary now. Excellent.

Pretty sweet from a sugar standpoint.

Still a baby, but the 2005 is drinking very well. It went surprisingly well with roasted chicken last night.

Now and Later.

Bevuto con un amico che conosceva Bartolo era ancora più prezioso. Violette e rose poi pepe bianco e sottobosco e funghi porcini. Pelliccia e cuoio. Mentolo ed eucalipto, ma elegantissimo, non acerbo. E fresco! Giá splendido ora puó stare ancora anni e anni ad evolvere.

Awesome. More soon. ….Drinking this wine is like sitting on the sofa with a big bar of dark chocolate. Very port like. Roses, leather, classic. Very dry dried figs. Plenty of tannins left. Could run for 10 more years with ease. 400$ now. Just drank a second and last bottle. One of the best Barolo’s money can buy.

Young and beautiful. Rich, truffled dark fruit. Such depth and soul. This is what we chase.

2005. Fait pour la longue garde. Super vin. Va bonifier avec le temps

Un beau nez parfumé de rose, de cerises et réglisse noire. En bouche on y retrouve les mêmes saveurs
en plus d’un côté épicé avec de la cannelle. Le vin est encore tannique à mon gout. Aurait bénéficié de plus d’aération.

Oh wow, outstanding...
