Serralunga Barolo Nebbiolo
Barolo, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
N: Cherry pits, Cherries, loam. meaty and dark. Sanguine. Tight , but starting to open up after 11/2 hrs. out.
P. Very earthy, ( interesting how in many of the ‘16’s, the tannins are very gentle.)
Sanguineous repeats, blood/ iron. Cherries, meaty again, some chocolate.
A great qpr, I think $35.
Glad I have another.

Tight on opening so left open 4 hours then tasted next day - Deep garnet red with floral and dense dark fruit nose - Juicy mouthwatering & complex on the palate - smoky & earthy with pleasant lingering finish. I’m glad I was able to snag a few of these gems for later at a reasonable price.
