Community Tasting Note

Monday, January 29, 2024 - Stood up for weeks and decanted off 1oz fine sediment. Light ruby-garnet, good color for nebbiolo at this age; aromatic, red fruited, cherry, some sandalwood, some mint; palate is light bodied, slightly rustic tannins, red fruited, 14% alcohol, still fairly primary fruit; finish is medium length. A very nice Barolo at a good youthful maturity now, still with another decade of growth in front of it. The winemaker had previously made wine for Bartolo Mascarello, and the style similarity may be there, but this is a bit more rustic and it doesn't have the balance and elegance of a 2011 Bartolo Mascarello tasted very recently. 92
