Sperss Barolo Nebbiolo

Lovely supple fruit. Open and tangy dark fruit. Blackcurrant and a deep saline note. Delicious and in really good shape.

The second release of this wine

Just absurd. A finish that lasted for minutes.

From a 3 liter bought on release by a wine friend. Amazingly good and tannins resolved. Wish I had had more than I did . . .

Beautiful. Hints of molasses, mocha, black tea, currant and a touch of honey as time went on. Giddy up!

Once again from a lunch at Marina Kitchen that was unforgettable

Saving it!!

Singing, but still a baby!

1994

1989 vintage. Sperss. With Angelo Gaja. Medium garnet. Starting to brown on the edges. Great nose - liquorice and aniseed, tar, black fruit profile. Cedar wood. With air, walnut. On the palate, first impression is glorious - packs a punch, but silky / velvety texture, full concentration, very ripe prominent tannins. Long lingering finish - slight drying but not to its detriment. Mushroom and truffle more noticeable on palate than nose. Superb. Drink now until 2035
