Saturday, November 23, 2019 - Piedmont II - better and learnings; 11/23/2019-11/29/2019 (Barolo, Alba, others): We were pretty unfair to this wine. Stuck it next to some just straight up amazing bottles. And I'm not totally convinced on it. There was quite a bit of funk and barnyard which I don't think meant bad bottle but prob meant not the freshest profile. So for me this was stinky cheese and barnyard and old socks and all of that. Just the hints of black fruit. As I said, overshadowed, so I didn't totally get into it.
