Deep golden. Nose initially of wood and sherry. Mouth, sharp, nutty, wood, sharply drying. Within 5 mins, TCA appears. Oxidised and corked. Dead and deader.

(Pieropan La Rocca) Light golden yellow, with dried-pear, guava, and beeswax aromas, La Rocca offers excellent concentration, a generous midpalate, and a long finish. Wonderfully complex now, it should improve for 12-15 years. Terroir: Soave

Same note as 12/2017. Still drinking well, and may well for years to come.

No primary fruit left, but remains an adult beverage that goes well with food. There is mineral and a whiff of remaining wood.

Gold colour, needs a bit of air to relax and open up, nicely complex, nose better than palate, mature but can keep. Tastes mineral still and long.
