Community Tasting Note

HowardNZ Likes this wine:

Thursday, September 20, 2018 - Francesco Rinaldi with Piera Rinaldi: Piera described 2014 as a difficult vintage for Rinaldi saved by better weather in September and October. From vines on clay and limestone Tortonian soil. Bottled in March 2018. A fresh and clean nose of clayey soil, largely red berries and cherries, spices, bramble and dried herbs. Thierry noted that he “likes the elegance and aromatics of 2014s like these”. In the mouth, quite open textured and approachable. Savoury, brambly, a little pinot-like, with dried herbs. A solid, workman-like Brunate that will age 15-25 years, if you wish.
