Sordo Giovanni, Barolo (Piedmont, Italy) 2010

Jul 30, 2014

By Michael Franz

This is the best wine that I can ever recall tasting from this producer, showing wonderful scents of woodsmoke and spices and compelling savory flavors that provide interesting accents to the core of sweet fruit.  Despite being very flavorful and alluring on account of its sweet-seeming fruit, this is really only medium-bodied, enhancing its impression of elegance.
