Community Tasting Note

HowardNZ Likes this wine:

Wednesday, January 2, 2019 - 2018 Visit to Marchesi di Grésy with Jeffrey Chilcott (Martinenga, Barbaresco): A classy wine and a step up from the previous Martinengas. On bouquet, first melted road tar, then soil, spices, black cherry and menthol, finishing on a hint of orange zest. In the mouth, fresh and bright. Deep and concentrated, showing good, ripe fruit. Plenty of volume and power. It finishes on slightly bitter tannins, this Barolo will need a few years cellar time (5+ years?).
