Very fruit-forward with black cherry and black raspberry, white chocolate, cocoa nib, and spaded earth flavors. An extremely approachable wine that would please the most diehard California Cabernet drinker.

Not 1978 or 1995. But some left over of fruit and licorice for that 40 year old.

Dark miso paste and then forest floor and muddy water. Dried flowers in the finish.

A bit oxidized perhaps, but this paired really well with our veal pasta.

Great nose- saddle, damp soil. Still some fruit, hint of green pepper, charred beef. Amazing for a 41 yr old Barbaresco.
