Stewed plums, violets, bramble, and a zing of minerality. Darker berries. Touch of mid palate sweetness. Impressive finish, tannins are big. No discernible oak. Opens nicely over a 2 hour drink, but give this another year or two in the cellar. This is big boy barbaresco.

Beautifully complex nose of wet stone, plum skin, hoisin; wonderful fruit, nice vervy acid; good length, right amount of tannin to contend with. By the glass at Uncle Yu's Livermore Valley...one of the best wine programs around!
