The Day Before Christmas Barolo - 2011 Barolo Riserva Tenuta Pianpolvere, Fratelli Adriano

This years ginger bread house is dedicated to our dog Shiraz

2011 Barolo Riserva Tenuta Pianpolvere, Fratelli Adriano
An old school, deep nose with notes of undergrowth, dried cherries, shoe polish and violet licorice. Very, very good. A hint of maturity.
The taste is taut and somewhat backward with notes of dried cherries, rosehips, potato water, violets and gravel. Fine structured tannins in the finish. 5+ years. 
90p   (tasted 2021/12)
