Community Tasting Note

Monday, May 14, 2012 - As expected, this was one of the top-performing wines of the tasting. Slow-oxed for five hours and decanted for two prior to drinking. Beautiful aromas of herbs and spices, smoke, soft red fruit, and that oh-so-compelling note of caramelized sugar that some say is a hallmark of Bruno Giacosa wines. This was simply delicious, tasting of subtle fruit, mild herbs, and a bit of bitterness reminiscent of fruit rind. The nose outshone the palate, but that's hardly surprising given its gorgeous aromatics.
