Nice and approachable Barolo, ready to be enjoyed today. Ripe dark berries, a hint of paint, violets, menthol, and damp earth. On the palate, it's seamless and charming with juiciness, good fruit, volume, and a long, flavourful aftertaste. Great value.

This wine stood out with its rich concentration of dark berries, evoking the intensity of jam, complemented by distinctive notes of menthol, violets, and wet earth. The acidity is well-judged, contributing to a profile that feels almost seamless in its execution. It leaves a long aftertaste and possesses a pleasing volume. Notably, it was the only wine I managed to correctly identify throughout the evening.

Wine #8 on Small Growers from Barbaresco event.
