Two Bottles Of Barolo


1973 Barolo Cascina Zoccolaio, Giovanni Scanavino
An earthy, low keyed nose with notes of cold coffee, dried flowers, dried red berries and old licorice.
The taste is dry and tight with earthy notes, soft tannins and a medium long, dry finish.
83p   (tasted 2024/12)

2020 Barolo Del Commune di Serralunga d´Alba, Ferdinando Principiano
An open, flirty nose with notes of red apples, dried strawberries, licorice and chrushed rocks. Very, very good.
The taste is young and fruity with perky tannins and notes of violets, bakelite and sweet red fruit. 6+ years.
88p   (tasted 2024/12)
