Cascina Ballarin, Barolo (Piedmont, Italy) 2009

Jul 20, 2013

By Michael Franz

 Among the most successful wines from La Morra in 2009, this shows very appealing savory aromas or cured meat and baking spices, with soft fruit,  very open flavors, and tannins that are fine grained and well weighted to the fruit.  A lovely wine that indicates some very good work in the vineyard and wise decisions on harvesting.
