In Barolo to Valpolicella (1999), Nicolas Belfrage writes: "the family are updating and modernizing in various ways, with new styles and new wines emerging after something of a lean spell in the 1980s".<br />According to their website the Enrico VI undergo the malo on french barriques and then is aged on french barriques for 18-20 months. Their Monfalletto seems to get a more tradtional approach.<br />But I didn´t get any wood feeling in the 97, the barriques was nicely integrated.Joakimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02689406695488368188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4790131826594329480.post-31082252298555075902013-01-18T22:53:46.367+01:002013-01-18T22:53:46.367+01:00I brought the '78 of the site to a blind tasti...I brought the '78 of the site to a blind tasting a couple of years ago. Good stuff. Needed time. But I've understood that the winery has gone barrique style now? True? Do you know?Niklas Jörgensenhttp://winevirtuosity.comnoreply@blogger.com
