Non ha la potenza dei grandi Barolo di Cavallotto, ma di certo ha tanto equilibrio che spesso manca a molti Barolo. Un dosaggio di legno e frutto ineccepibile.

P'n'p. Duft søte moreller, kirsebær, søt lakris og anis. Smak av modne kirsebær, jordbær, moreller og søt lakris. Føler at primærfrukten er avtagende. Fortsatt veldig rustikk i stilen, men nå med slakk taninstruktur og merkbar høy alkohol. Vinen føles tung og har mistet mye av sjarmen.

The structure is really upfront at this time, to the point it's barely drinkable at opening. Much better on day 2, showing tipical nebbiolo aromas and flavours of dark cherries, tar and violets. It has alot of grip and almost chewable tanins. Seems like it will get there, but needs at least another 5 years.

The roughness of 09 is not really here; the tannins are smoother, the fruit is better making it more balanced and I feel the acidity is not up to the previous vintage. However, this is a decent Nebbiolo drinking quite well now. Very Nebbiolo on the nose, mirrored on the palate with an OK length on the finish.
Improves with air.

Bibendum Portfolio Tasting: Graphite and tar with cherry and licorice. There is plenty of fruit power coupled with bold tannins. More time to settle and develop is recommended.

Much of the make up of this terrific Nebbiolo is young vine Barolo ‘Bricco Boschis’ so it is little wonder it looks like very decent Barolo. There’s some tar to the aroma coupled with red berry fruit, lipstick and liquorice. It is dense in the mouth with lovely interplay between sweet fruit, flora and savoury earth elements. It is dense and long with chewy tannins on the back-end.

Solid nose with intense, dark, young nebbiolo fruit. Shows more character and style than usual on this level. Some spice, black tea, balsa wood and pine resin. Could easily be misstaken for a light, young barolo. Lots of structure on the palate with good acidity and tannins. Needs food. Will benefit from a couple of years in the cellar and will probably continue to drink well for at least 10 years after that.

Rødfrukt med noe lakris og anis på nesen. God konsentrasjon, men med en noe funky munnfølese. Avslutter med en litt småbesk finish. Den er god, men det er et eller annet som ikke stemmer helt her.

- Ruby color with fast forming legs. It's somewhat balanced with a medium body. Round texture.

Luftet en time i karaffel. Røde bær, kirsebær og rips på nese. Stram og ubalansert munnfølelse. Bitter utgang.
