Casa Vinicola Cortese Barolo 2004, Docg
Barolo

Piedmont, Italy
$31.95 (119677)
Exemplary modern Barolo with plenty of forward fruit on both the nose and the palate. Primarily plum, rose petals, masala spice, leather and ripe cherry aromas. On the palate, the wine is fairly tannic, but the fruit is quite forward considering the youthfulness of the wine. Will easily last a decade, but only needs about 2-4 years to enter its drinking window. A very good value Barolo from a delicious vintage. (VINTAGES panel, June 2009)
