I am opening this tomorrow during my chat with Maria Teresa Mascarello at 11am NY time. I will update the note then. Details on Vinous for Zoom, or you can watch on YouTube. Hope everyone’s having a great night! 😊🍷😍🤩😱🤪 Update: terrific depth, resonance and character. Hard to find, but really delivers the goods. Super.

Jun 26th, 2020Decanted an re-tasted often over four hours. Never really opened. I heard rumors that this was once open and singing, but not now (to me). I hope all the hype of 2010 is true, because everything I've had is angular, simple and tannic, albeit floral. And yes, I know it's Nebbiolo, but this was like slamming against a brick wall. All the potential in the world, I guess, but not pleasant at the moment. I'll keep drinking the 2011 Barbera in the meantime.
