My first time tasting an Enzo Boglietti Barolo, and probably my last. I decanted and I strained. No sediment in this bottle. I could tell while I was pouring that I would not like this wine. The 2013 Enzo Boglietti is a tannin bomb that needs many years of cellaring. There is tiny layer of fruit under the tannin, but not enough to justify waiting many years for it to emerge. Is it worth $79 a bottle? No Signore!

Very closed to begin with and rather harsh tannins. First impression was not good. After two hours it opened up and revealed som nice mushroom on the nose and tannins softened. I would recommend sitting on it for a couple of years more but not sure how much room it has to improve

The nose was earthy and dark, showing crushed raspberry followed by stone dust, savory minerals and grilled herbs. On the palate, I found medium-weight textures with dark mineral undertones followed by notes of blackberry, cherry spice, hints of leather and sneaky tannin that seemed to increase with each sip. The finish was long and grippy, with lingering tart red fruits and pretty inner floral tones. This will require years to soften, but once it does, I can only imagine how gorgeous it may be.

”B3” Tasting Graz 2018 – Barolo, Barbaresco, Blaufränkisch 2018: To me the best Barolo tonight, classy flavors of roses and black tea, smooth and juicy on the palate, very elegant tannins for Barolo, well-structered and in need of some bottle age. Great wine. - 92+ points
