Community Tasting Note

Thursday, November 23, 2023 - The ‘19 Tre Tine is an incredibly finessed young Barolo. While in past vintages I have found the Tre Tine to be classically tannic, making the Brunate the better wine to drink young, in the ‘19 the tannins seem to take a big step up in quality.
The nose was nicely perfumed with sweet red cherry fruit, red florals, tobacco, licorice, and menthol. On the palate, the wine is medium to light in body, shockingly easy to drink with almost no tannins to speak of. The flavor profile is nicely concentrated though, with a mass of red cherry fruit and red florals along with tobacco and licorice. On the finish, herbal notes dominate, with mint and other cool herbs, anise, smoke, and red floral tones lingering.
The knock on the ‘19 Tre Tine is it lacks much complexity, at least for now, but it is a super enjoyable wine.
