Il Bosco Superiore Barbera d'Alba
Alba, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Pretty Nebbiolo colour of course - maybe a little darker than normal? Maybe the room is too dim! Lots going on for me on the nose. Floral, perfumy stuff, a bit of cedar, got orange peel for a sec but also softer stuff (is candle wax too creative?) I taste cherry and maybe almond liqueur…. Smooth finish with nice medium tannins - great structure. To me this is a complex and rewarding wine.

Another really outstanding WOW. 10-1420. Balanced but with a little fruit forward then fine finish.
