Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, August 26, 2008 - This wine has fleshed out nicely since the last time I tried it a year and a half ago or so. Medium ruby at most, with cherry, tar, asian spices, and roses. Very clearly nebbiolo, I guessed new styled barolo. I was ready to guess 97, but the blle was revealed before hand, so so much for me really impressing my friends. A really floral and enticing nose. As an admirer of more traditional Barolo, I must admit that this wood was very well done. Medium full weighted on the palate, with sweet dark pitted fruits, cherries, more tar, exotic spices, and flowers, with a pinot like sap to the fruit. Still a touch young, but a delicious drink. A great showing 91+ pts.
