November 16, 2016 - Yearly truffle dinner at the great Italian restaurant “La Vecchia Signora” in Stockholm.
Newly harvested white truffles flown in straight from Alba was the base in all of the six courses served.
This year the winery Oddero was present with their wines.
This is a step up in complexity from the entry level served before this.
Nose is very fine and intriguing.
Green and herbal, stemmy, showing mint and notes of balsamico and fine spice mix.
Palate shows a semi mature Barolo, clean, lots of nice red berries present, touch of tar and leather, mushrooms, fine acidity, medium bodied with medium length, pleasant in the mouth.
This will continue to develop well for another 5 – 10 years, at least.
