Community Tasting Note

Thursday, March 23, 2017 - Second in a side-by-side flight of all nine crus from this vintage. Tasting order recommended by Aldo Vacca. Tasted from small Bordeaux style glasses, which probably muted the bouquets, and decidedly accentuated alcohol.

Mostly muted bouquet. Similar taste profile to the Pora, with notes of rosehips, hibiscus, raspberry leaf tea, orange essence, red loam, rusting iron, and weathered clay pot, but a cut above it in concentration and depth. Somewhat more open on the palate, showing appealing texture and weight. Nicely balanced, medium plus acid, light tannins (by Barbaresco standards). In an early drinking window.
