Community Tasting Notes 2

  November 24, 2022 - Piemonte: Back to the truffling!; 11/24/2022-12/3/2022 (Wineries and various restaurants): 2 years in new oak like all of the Barolo. Very pretty in style, almost reminds me of an apricot jam (perhaps because there is a picture in the tasting room of the first family after they won a peach growing contest). Drying tannin. More time needed but a nice start to it. Comes from a vineyard towards the top of Bussia (perhaps the ‘real’ Bussia) with clay soils.
