Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2016

The nose is a bit mute right now but I smell some almond, some cherry, a bit of leather (?) and there's a bit of heat coming up after a while. The palate is very delicate and rather smooth. I was anticipating a bit more dryness. Nice fruit along a strong acid backbone, very nice velvety touch on the sides, velvety tannins with a very gentle drying effect, very long finish with cherry and a bit of coffee underlined by these velvety, gently drying tannins. This is a bit surprising but pleasant. I would never have located it rightly blind. β€” 4 years ago

Carso Cabernet Franc

Superb old world cab franc. Barnyard in the nose and very earthy palate. Great expression of the grape, with layers of complexity. This was the 2016. β€” 3 years ago
