Buy Barbara & Dolcetto from great producers of Barolo. Period. Works like a charm, every time.

Rasberry, plum with a gentle acidity in the finish that I find very pleasing. Probably won't age long but it sure is drinking nice now!

Serious wine. Leathery earthy savoury, anise and cedar, tastes like the 50s
