Piemonte: Truffles instead of Turkey; 11/23/2023-12/2/2023 (Barolo, Barbaresco, Alto Piemonte and of course Alba): This was just incredibly lovely and I expect has to be in the list of the best wines of the trip. Ok - it is still young, but everything was in such balance. Sure pure dark lovely fruit and a nice weightlessness to it but then also so much depth. A wine that can only get better and better. Pity to see we don’t have one of these in our cellar but glad that we grabbed some 2019 earlier in the day at a store.

Another excellent bottle of this. Classic, old-school, complex and deep. What an incredible Montestefano of the highest level.

Ikke dekantert. Tøff, men meget pen, også dag 2. Også dag 3. Pen sak, og absolutt meget i live.

Ikke dekantert. Helt herlig fra første glass. Syre og taniner støtter opp en vidunerlig fruk. Tilsvarende pen dag 2.

Genial. Jetzt gut zu trinken.
Kann aber sicherlich auch noch viele Jahre lagern.
