Community Tasting Note

Saturday, February 3, 2024 - 2019 Barolo Masterclass at La Festa del Barolo (The Pool, New York): Medium ruby. Backward nose. Medium+ weight. At first, simple, tart fruit, a dash of herbs, moderate acidity and soil, and dry, puckery tannins. However, this quickly unfolded in the glass, showing sweeter blueberry fruit, more texture and tar, and an uplifting squeeze of citrus zest. In fact, of all the wines, this probably exhibited the most rapid, positive transformation in the glass. Net net, I’m left thinking that this could be truly excellent
