Roccheviberti, Barolo (Piedmont, Italy) 2009

Jul 20, 2013

By Michael Franz

 This is a very stylish wine that shows excellent intensity and persistence of flavor but only moderate weight.  Oak shows more flamboyantly in the aromas than the flavors, and the scents of toast and charcoal work very well with the dark tones of the fruit and the appealing accents of spices and cured meat.  Quite complex and enduringly interesting.
