Wednesday, July 18, 2012 - nose: There is a good red fruit core to this with tones of berries, cherries, roasted herbs, roses and red fruits. It isn't the deepest nose, but the aromatics are nicely balanced
taste: Medium bodied with medium/high acidity and some chewy tannins. The structure isn't as big as it sounds though with nice tones of red fruits, berries, cherries and some roasted herbs.
overall: This is a really nice barolo for around $25. It doesn't bring layers of depth, but it does have a nice charm to it.
