Community Tasting Note

Sunday, April 21, 2019 - I may need to edit and add additional notes for day 2

Popped and poured and drinking from unfortunately very poor Hotel glassware in Annecy.

Day 1:
Initially a little muted but opening up. A darker more masculine Produttori, yet to gain the silky drink ability of the Del Barbaresco.
Very tannic, dry, pot pourri, aniseed, cranberry juice.
Need to edit on day 2 as it's enjoyable but also quite tough going right now. 91 +++

Day 2:
After a tough day falling off my bike this is going down a treat. Much more open, deeper, round and more plush, tannins subdued and enveloped within the fruit. Perhaps some dark Rhubarb and less Cranberry and surprisingly creamy and glossy. Depth and complexity today and my fears were not justified, this is truly fantastic.
Tannins so fine and lingering, just perfect. Could be 97 points in 5-10 years
95-96
