Brunate Barolo Nebbiolo
Barolo, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Dark, inky and intense. Tobacco, molasses, dried herbs, blood. Dense and packed with floral notes at the edges. Very pure on the nose, salinity and focus. Excellent. Stop young

A lovely nose of roses and plum. Floral notes. Quite lifted. Great balance on the palate. Not too hot and a lovely textured finish.

Great but dense fruit. Thick dried cherry. Heady perfume- violets, black cherry, salinity. This is lovely, but young.

Possibly one of my favorite pours of 2018 so far // bright, nearly high-toned red fruit / balanced oak, slight spice, mint and purple flowers / luxurious and deliriously delicious - and now drinking so well in this time window
