Tasting notes

Brick-red colour. Seems quite old. Fine nose. Fruity cherriysh core. Lots of sweet anise around. Some tar. Traditional style and typical of the grape. Fullbodied wine in the mouth and lots of fruit. Again it is quite cherriysh and fruity in style. Lots of sweet anise and a touch of tar. Typical nebbiolo-notes, but lacking a little depth and the more finer notes of roses. Fine acidity. Dry and tannic end. Long taste. A good ’98 Barbaresco and a very good effort from this producer. Drinks well now, but can take on some more years. Very good.
