April 27, 2024 - Part 2 Produttori del Barbaresco 2009 horizontal. Starter. Aired in bottle for 1 day already. Drank in Conterno Sensory.
Appearance is clear, deep intensity, ruby colour. Legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of earth, green capsicum and stem, dark herbs, blackberries, black cherries, dark violets. Developed.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13%), medium+ tannins, medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of rustic earth, capsicum spices, green herbs, blackberries, black cherries, smoky tobacco. Long finish.
Very good quality. I am quite forgiving of green notes nowadays, and when not overly dominant, they add to the overall complexity character. Nice Cab Franc. Bernard Baudry always reliable. -

March 15, 2024 - This wine rests pretty in the glass with it burgundy translucence extending from rim to core. Distinct but somewhat muted notes of cranberry and raspberry lift from the glass along with some mushroom earthiness. Some sandalwood and cinnamon appear as the wine opens. All the same on the palate and continuing through the finish. The dominate note is the crunchy cranberry flavor. A solid wine but not delivering as much as I would have expected from this vintage. A shadowy streak of sediment runs along the side of the bottle. 13% alc. With assorted blue cheeses, Appalachian cheese and crusty bread. 03.15.24. Recommended.

March 13, 2024 - Super beau cab franc sur le fruit, poivron rouge, pas de verdure desagreable juste du beau fruit rouge. On sent un peu d’évolution mais le vin est porté par le fruit. Dans une tres belle phase actuellement.
