Community Tasting Notes 2

    September 14, 2010 - We let it sit for 30 minutes and then poured my first taste. Its bouquet was delicate with herbal and earthy notes of rubber, tar, black pepper and licorice. The fruit sensations were secondary with hints of dried orange peel and prune. At this point, I was floored that it was still alive and I spent at least 15 minutes sniffing its wonderful fragrance before I tasted it. When I did, it showed wonderful soft prunes and raisin up front with those undeniable Barolo-eque notes of tar and peppered licorice. Over the mid-palate, the acidity remained evident and it transitioned to velvet soft yet remarkably fine grained tannins. Its length was epic with the finish lasting upwards of 30 seconds. What surprised me the most was that despite it not being optimally cared for, it remained fresh and was still very much alive even with all the challenges it had seen.

    October 20, 2003 - VinItaly USA- Barolo and Barbaresco Tasting (Hotel Intercontinental- Chicago): This wine had very sharp tannins and a spicy herbal nose. Full bodied. Meaty fruit notes. Should be very nice some day. 91-92+.
