Ciabot Berton Barolo La Morra 2011
La Morra, Cuneo, Piedmont, ItalyComfortably worn leather, dried raspberry and dried cherry pervade this Barolo from the commune of La Morra. The comfort continues on the mellow palate, ripe and savoury and finely salted, showing more age than its age. Tannins are softly tuggy, and dried rose petals linger on the finish. This is from Cabot Berton's 8ha of hillside Nebbiolo on sandy, marl and calcareous clay soils. After maceration on the skins for 16 days in concrete, this spent 18 months in Slovenian oak casks, followed by a tightening six months in stainless before bottling. Drinking beautifully now.Tasted: 19 October 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $53.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
