November 24, 2019 - Thanksgiving week in Piemonte; 11/22/2019-11/30/2019 (Milan, Barolo, Alba, Barbaresco): At the Vino de Vicino tasting room (La Morra). Side by side with the '13 Rivetto Briccolina. This wine was not really open for business to day - strong tannins and quite shut down on the the finish. Suspect it needs quite a bit more cellar time.

November 24, 2019 - Piedmont II - better and learnings; 11/23/2019-11/29/2019 (Barolo, Alba, others): I have no explanation for what I got here. Everyone else also liked the other Rivetto more, but for me this was just straight hand soap and slightly offputting and no one else had the same impression (we all tried from the same glass and my initial impression was some residue but didn't seem to be true for the broader group).
