2019 Barolo Del Comune di Serralunga, Ferdinando Principiano


2019 Barolo Del Comune di Serralunga, Ferdinando Principiano
I visited the cantina in July 2023 - Barolista: A Couple Of Days In Piedmont - Visit To Ferdinando Principiano - and subsequently bought some bottles. The 2019 Barolo offers up a earthy, fine nose with notes of hard cherry candy, paint and Langhe earth. A tad more locked up compared to two years ago.
The taste is young and tight with perky Serralunga tannins and notes of bakelite, red currants, tobacco and paint. Needs time, 6+ years.

2021 Dolcetto d´Alba, Bruno Giacosa


2021 Dolcetto d´Alba, Bruno Giacosa
An upfront, fresh nose with notes of blueberries en masse, violets, fried herbs and earth. Very, very good.
The taste is forward and fine with juicy blueberry and damson fruit, bakelite and Langhe earth. A very fine Dolcetto. Will keep for a long time.
