Vallegrande Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2016

Tried 3 times over the last 4 weeks. This is still a winner (sometimes I need to backtrack - wtf was I thinking but not here). Powerful tannins - but comes across as light and elegant with 10+ years aging potential. A ton of fruit even after 10 years. Mostly cherry 🍒. Roses 🌹, leather, violets 😈, touch Fernet-Branca. Will cellar some and that says it all. — 2 days ago

Paolina Barbera d'Alba 2024

This was cherries in a bottle. Tart, bright red and black cherries. Slight earthy component. Was slightly overpowered by some of the cheeses on the board but was a good pairing. Put a slight chill on it to 65 degrees. — 2 months ago

Gavarini Chiniera Barolo Nebbiolo 2018

Apparently not a great vintage for Barolo and it showed, albeit from one of my favorite producers. — 4 months ago
