1961 Fontanafredda Barolo

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Friday, September 12, 2014 - Cloudy light red. Rose, dried cherry nose with significant touch of VA. Lighter weight, high acidity which never quite completely folds in, some tar, tart red fruit. The acidity has kept this wine going for over 5 decades, but at the same time, it shortens the finish and keeps it from being a truly distinguished old Nebbiolo. Interesting and certainly good.
