Community Tasting Notes

Thursday, May 20, 2010 - Shows barolo-like qualities, as advertised: Old World leather and spice. Quite impressive on the palate - indeed reminds me of good nebbiolo: medium body, spice, with the medium-ruby color edging ever so slightly toward browning, that would make me feel like this wine is older than it is. No new oak on this, and large casks used I am told, so perhaps an oxidative style explains the age that I sense here. 89-91. A lot of character for the price, and has something pretty about it.
