Gianfranco Bovio

Vigna Arborina Barolo Nebbiolo 2007

At last the sun shines in a cloudless sky and drinking today is reserved with Nicolas. At Bottega and we talk on the patio there and choose a Flowers Pinot Noir brought and opened by Massimo the sommelier . We drink that quickly and then choose a Bovio Barolo from La Morra in 2007. The Bovio tastes like how it feels to listen to Nicolas describe his most recent work in Emola Amity. We drink this slowly. It has been made sturdy. It has a taste of work done. The flavor of August to November. Working with Oregon Pinot for four solid months straight through, Nicolas explains, morning to morning, healthy doing all the work , every big and little thing, widely working all the grapes along to a 2015 wine. It tastes like that but only in 2007 in La Morra. Strengthened.
To me it tastes like talking about my lovely wife. And to say I wish I had the money to buy some good land to build her a home closer to the sea. It tastes like what it would do to me to see her there in that hand built home, very healthy and very alive and perfectly situated, at ease, contented in her place, made.
Fulfilled with the taste of maturity and youth together, us together. A wine bent off the vine by two people only.

The Bovio was in a perfect mood, like a friend listening and sharing his life with me. Life in the sun on the patio. The only two there is except for Massimo. These things can taste like that.

Lula

Rosato Pinot Noir 2014

This pink wine looks more like a red, its brilliant ruby color tinged with a bit of orange. The aromas are fresh, with red cherry - stems and all - joining a floral note. Flavors seems bent more in Tempranillo's direction than Pinot's, cherry in front, spices and fantastic acidity in hot pursuit. There is a late hint of tea that hangs on into the finish, which is lengthy. — 10 years ago
