Community Tasting Note

Saturday, October 14, 2017 - For a young Barolo, this one was showing well at dinner. Quite honestly, this one is too young. I was not all that sure that this was the right decision here to go with this one, but after about 30 minutes of air, it went very well with a rare rib-eye steak with Marsala and angel-hair pasta. Classic Barolo with good, medium+ mouthfeel from the start, good candied red cherry. The middle turned a little darker, showing a gravelly black cherry and black tea. The finish was a little more spicy, and was quite restricted for the first 30-40 minutes. This wine disappeared very quickly over dinner!
