the 2015 Barolo Brunate

pepper and liquid violets characteristics

What impresses me most about the 2009s is the elegance of their tannin

The nose of blackberry

Benjamin Romeo, Rioja Contador Vintage:2007 the 2015 Barolo Brunate(86% tempranillo and 14% garnacha), Inky violet color. Powerful, brooding aromas of black and blue fruits, violet, dark chocolate and anise. Dense, chewy and sweet, with strong dark berry and cherry compote flavors and an exotic floral quality that gains strength with air. Shows serious concentration and extract and finishes sappy and very long. This big boy demands patience. Josh Raynolds
