On the rich, more dense side of Barbaresco. Hand carried back from Italy in 2013. It was a great find. Very good integration of a well balanced Nebbiolo.

WHY OH WHY didn't I have more patience... but, several more bottles resting peacefully in the cellar..... way too young... after about 3 hours breathing (not decanted), it was just showing some signs of opening up and as we consumed over another hour+... it was showing hints at the beauty this will grow up to be. Strong backbone to this.... just be patient. Maybe try again in a couple years just to track on development... will still be years to go. I anticipate this could easily be mid/upper 90's.
