Community Tasting Note

Sunday, March 8, 2009 - Six '89 Vietti with Luca Currado (Il Corso): This stood in stark contrast to the Brunate. Whereas the Brunate was voluptuous and upfront, this wine is seriously closed down and showing nothing like it did at the Rocche vertical last year. The wine is dense, layered and stuffed with goodness including rich dark fruit at its center, but it really doesn’t want to come out and play. Tannin pig that he is, I think it was Greg’s wine of the night, but while I agree the quality is absolutely there and may in fact be the best wine Vietti made in that vintage, for right now I find the Brunate and Villero Riserva showing better. Low A now with A+ /A potential based on previous showings.
