La Spinetta, Barbaresco Valeirano other_regions Not very bordeaux – more

Not very bordeaux – more reminiscent of some of the more ambitious Spanish reds at the moment

Chewy tannins after a very mellifluous palate

it is an extraordinary effort that offers the essence of graphite

Here too plenty of patience will be required

sappy flavor of tart cherry stomp and spreads out horizontally to saturate the palate

La Spinetta, Barbaresco Valeirano other_regions Not very bordeaux – moreGood medium red. Wild aromas of truffle, smoke, underbrush, spices and cigar box. Then fat and lush in the mouth, showing the exotic side of the vintage. This silky Barbaresco has the sex appeal to be enjoyed early. Finishes with ripe, building tannins. Conveys a rather high pH feel, and indeed Rivetti notes that pHs are generally higher in his 2006 Barbarescos than in the 2007s. Stephen Tanzer
