Decanted for 3 hours or so and improved over another couple of hours. Medium bodied, red fruit, some medium grain tannins inside your gums as well as on the palate, roses, cardamom and cinnamon infused into the fruit. A good wine but no excitement right now. Hold ?

Great bottle in line with my previous note, seems to be quite stable for the time being. Elegant, good length, light red fruit mixed in with the typical Nebbe fruit.

Didn't really see the improvement to day two as I would expect it to. I find the fruit on the red side, light on its feet, great acidity as normally found with Scarpa. Tannins quite soft. Typical Nebbiole on the nose and palate with a brickish color. OK length.
No big rush, but I will start to think about my remaining bottles as I find this slowly coming onto phase.

Barolo v.s. Barbaresco night (Extra Space): Tasted blind.
Appearance is clear, pale intensity, ruby colour. Legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of roses, violets, dense fresh red cherries, old wood, hints of earth. Swee Developing.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium+ alcohol (14%), fine integrated high tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of concentrated ripe red cherries, red plums, spice, tarry earth. old wood, stony minerals with more air. Medium+ finish.
Very good quality. Clear cut traditional styled. Was guessing a Barbaresco, but turned out to be an earlier maturing/approachable and elegant Barolo from the commune of La Morra. Already in drinking window, and will live another 10 years easily, but drink earlier if you want more freshness of the fruit.
Tettimorra comes from a 1.0 hectare vineyard near the village of La Morra, between the crus of Bricco San Biagio and Roggeri. Somewhat near the famous near Arborina cru.
About 28 days maceration. About 4 years in large casks before bottling.

Sjokolade og lær er fremtredende. Kan godt ligge lengre. Knas tørr.
