Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, November 25, 2015 - Begins highly aromatic, with a nose that seems older than 1999. Jonathan notes some maderization initially, but it blows off. Deep core, lots of dark cherry, smells like a mature Nebbiolo with lots of delicate, earthy nuances. Gains in sweetness over dinner and loses any maderization notes. Jonathan gets coffee notes, and says that at the end, this took on weight. Of the three Giacosas on the table, this is the most gentle and feminine; it doesn’t have the power expected of a ‘99.
At restaurant San Marco in Canelli, Thanksgiving in Piedmont 2015.
