From a not well-known producer. It is rare that I note tannins but geez this 12 year-old Barolo was stripping our teeth. Not in a bad way though.
- 1998 Gianfranco Alessandria Barolo San Giovanni - Italy, Piedmont, Langhe, Barolo (2/6/2010)
Clear, dark ruby red with slight sediment; A Montforte mountain of tannins but with an aromatic nose and classic Neb flavors. Better with food because of the tannins. This might have been difficult to taste on release due to the tannins, wow. Well-priced for the quality. (90 pts.)
