This weekend we opened the 2018 Domenico Clerico Azienda Agricola Di Viberti Giuliana-Monforte D' Alba Barolo.
On the nose there is cherry, raspberry, cranberry, licorice, roses, clay pots and dusty soil.
On the palate there is cherry, raspberry, cranberry, anise, rose hip, leather and dried herbs.
This wine is medium to full bodied medium+ to high acidity and medium+ firm tannins that move into a long red and black fruit leathery finish. Enjoy the weekend and please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — a year ago

2022.11.15 Rest. Buon Padre, Vergne w/Wakano
Round, smooth, elegant and fruity, by nose a bit like Pinot Noir but by mouth very different and flowery.
Still prefer yesterday's Buon Padre 2017.
Single cru, no blend 6 month barrel, 1.5 years bottle.

One of the best wines I’ve had in my life. Truly spectacular. All the things were there. Structure, balance, the fruits of Barolo, all of it. No sense in going over it. Memorable to say the least — 5 years ago
1997 vintage. Plenty of time to decant and it opened to a very complex and balanced wine. Cherry, olive, green pepper, leather, hay, eucalyptus, earthy with nice minerality. Has an umami character. For me…a little funk of barnyard and brett make it muah! — a year ago
Often referred to as “Baby Barolo.” Bright ruby color. Red/black cherry fruit aromas with a hint of balsamic. Bright cherry flavors with touches of leather and earth. Full bodied with a long and lingering finish. Tannins are noticeable and rounded, but they are not overwhelming. Good balance and nice freshness. — 2 years ago
