Giuseppe Rinaldi
Tre Tine Barolo Nebbiolo
Barolo, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
2010 vintage. Tre Tine. Medium ruby hue. Nose is quite tight and reticent at first. After an hour of decanting, the beauty of this wine shines through. Perfumed, black fruits and spices with hints of wood shavings. Still very youthful without tertiary aromas. Vibrant. On the palate, very bright acidity creates an angular wine with some muscular definition. Medium minus body. Alcohol feels more 12.5% than the 14% on the bottle. Tannins are Fine and ripe. Concentration is deep but refined and not over powering - balanced. Finish is fairly long. Surprisingly light and elegant wine that nonetheless has a powerful underbelly. This wine has a very long journey ahead of it. Drink now until 2035+.

Outrageous. Slowly opened up at Chi Spacca with Madi. At first the palate was phenomenal. As you’d expect for perfectly stored rinaldi. Then came the aromatics an hour in. Holy WOW. Truly a singular expression of Nebbiolo. So lucky to have this.

2010 vintage. Way too young. Needs at least 10-15 years. Should mature into a fantastic wine.
