Community Tasting Note

HowardNZ Likes this wine:

Saturday, September 8, 2018 - Gajas at Tre Galli, Torino (Ristorante Tre Galli, Turin, Italy): Popped and poured but it could have used an earlier decant. Lighter coloured with a rusty tinge at the rim. A prettier nose. More perfumed with roses and violets and more red fruit than black on bouquet. Also a little dry clay and a touch of creosote. On palate, the impression of being a ‘smaller’ wine than the Sperss, however it was still large scaled, dense and structured with serious concentration. Drinking darker fruited than the bouquet suggested, with tar, brushwood, rusty metal, espresso and balsamico notes. As Andrew said, when paired with the Angolotti, the Barbaresco had “lost a little fruit”, although it paired better with the Fasone Rump dish. There for drinking in the next 10 years.
