Paitin, Barbaresco (Piedmont, Italy) 2009

Jul 12, 2012

By Michael Franz

 This wine was initially a bit reticent in terms of aroma, but swirling over time brought out lots of lovely floral and spice nuances that offer appealing accents to the dark, dense, ripe and flavorful fruit.  Packed with stuffing and succulence, this is clearly an offspring of the warm 2009 vintage and a testament to how good these wines can be.
