Community Tasting Note

  July 29, 2015 - An evening of wines from Trentino/Alto Adige (University Circle): A few months back, this group did a Barbera tasting and we discussed how well they might age. I bought this wine since then to check it out. It seemed as good a time as any to drink it. Ruby in color. The nose has dark cherries and black raspberries along with a nice earthy funk. Maybe a bot of damp forest floor. On the palate, this is juicy with nice black raspberries and dark cherries. It is still fresh and alive. But, at ten is it giving me anything that it didn't give me at 5? I don't think so. An outstanding wine, but I am not sure it gets much better after five or so years. It certainly held just fine though. YMMV.
