Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, June 30, 2015 - Big Time Barolo and Barbaresco Fest et al (Il Foro, Mpls, MN): Cloudy, medium maroon color. PNP, followed 1 glass over 3 hours. Same bottle as Chablis28. I'm not sure what was wrong with this bottle, but there was something wrong with it. Heat stress seems the most logical given this had proper storage and a solid cork, but who knows. Very woody, gripping dusty sandy tannins, dirt, tart, dried cherry. There was little if any change over 3 hours either. Not the compelling bottle expected. If I had to score it, it would be sub 90pts.
