Tasting notes

Brick red colour. Quite deep and red. Nose shows those heavy nebbiolo-aromas of anise, tar, tobacco, some roses and cherries. Quite ethereal. Good body, medium concentration of fruit. Mature. Anise, tar and tobacco. Good acids. Tannic. Some greenness in the tannins.
A very nice Barbaresco. On the green side and with typical nebbiolo-aromas. Mature.

Deep, but badly browning, colour. The nose shows oxydation. Some coffee and slight hints of roses present in the nose. Still some nebbiolo-notes. In the mouth also the oxydation is too much. Some red berries and roses left. A shame for such a young wine. It made a fantastic sauce though.
