It's only wine but I like it

Still very much fresh and vibrant, this is a truly lovely Barolo. Complex, the flavours simply drench your palate, Sour cherries, dried fruit, a touch of earthiness and the nebbiolo acidity and tannin on the very long finish (though that tannin is mellowing). This wine is in a very good place. Bravo! Tasted Sep 2022.
