Initially softer and more savory than your average Barbaresco, but we’re drinking a 2011 in 2018. Delicious with food as the tannins and dark cherry flavors come forward. Day 2: no help. This wine is missing some acid for balance. Slightly oxidized notes of bruised apple and prune.

I’m excellent shape!! I’m very happily surprised. The aged components were there, but so was fruit expression and acidity. What a delight.
