decanted. This needed time to open up but when it did it was lovely and operating on all cylinders. mild tar, rose petals, and that sneaky long creep of dusted cherries on the finish that is almost haunting. Special wine

Piemonte: Back to the truffling!; 11/24/2022-12/3/2022 (Wineries and various restaurants): Fabio was very open with us. This was apparently ‘not the best year’ although honestly even with that primer I didn’t see it. This tasted excellent. It’s all of the herbal and fruit character of a typical Monvigliero. I didn’t even completely get the age on it. The wine is still drinking very young and fresh. If you had said last year’s release I would believe it. From the cellar of the domaine so makes sense and that is some of it but still it was surprising. Just a wonderful wine and easily the wine of the meal.

Luftet 2 timer i glasset. Lukt av kirsebærkompott, anis, rulletobakk, frisk salvie, tørket oregano. Smak av kirsebærkompott, provencekrydder, snus, hvit pepper, tjære og søt lakris. Moden, litt kokt frukt, medium syre og medium tannin. Litt alkoholstikk og virker litt varm i munnen.

Region was right, I guessed older. This time a bit haggard, over his peak. No charm. 90-91

Auzone Burlotto vertical #bonus bottle
Tires fruit, over the edge oxidated notes, clearly an off bottle, probably bad storage.
