A costco buy.
Black licorice, dusty earth, red cherry, and tar on the medium scent profile. Red cherry, earth , and leather on the palate are a bit restrained. Medium body finishes with sour cherry, and dry, dusty tannins.
3/19/7/4/4 +50 = 88 pts.

This is a nice Barolo from Italy.
Showing cherries, red currants, spices, oak, peppercorn, earth, green vegetables, herbs, black tea, rose pedals, barnyard, tobacco leaf and black pepper.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.
Showing a very nice nose, and very dry on the palate with mild complexity.
Medium on the finish with medium plus tannins and tangy raspberries.
This Barolo need a few hours to open up properly.
A good food wine that will pair nicely with BBQ Meats.
Still unbalanced and would be nice to revisit it in a few years.
I paired it with cheeses and crackers.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
88 points.
$25.

Everyday Barolo. Simple fruit aromas and flavors. Better on day 2. Checked the box on this one.

Color of light purple with a mix of black tea. Clear. Nose of nice dried strawberry, aldehyde, distinctive tobacco leaves, strength of alcohol, and a bit fermented cabbage. Taste of good quality tannins, still bold, nice zest, nice ripe grapes, nice seducing alcohol content, black pepper, a bit mineral, some flowering and black tea note, and a bit plum. Balanced and quite long finish.

Cherry coke with vodka and tannins. S’okay for $20 on LB. Used half for my oxtail stew. 😂

Covalli Barolo DOCG 2014: Medium-bodied. Moderate acidity & tannins. Nice balance. Notes of ripe cherry, plum, blackberry, leather, & earth. Long satisfying finish. For me, this was a very approachable & adaptable wine; a great traditional Barolo if you are looking for a dry, earthy & fruity wine. Great week to all! Cheers ❤️🍷
