Top Notes For

2008, La Morra
Hard to find a Barolo more texturally Pinot-like
A bit of cherry, plenty of rose petals; cinnamon, cloves and graphite
Tar and ink
Long finish, solved tannin and very smashable 🎼🎼🎼
Not for the long haul

Brooding, dark and unforgiving. Raspberries, wilted mint, and licorice. It's a good (not great) barolo, but lacks a bit of complexity and finesse for the money-- and also comes across chunky and slightly oxidized.

Well balanced but firm tannins.
