the sauvage and humus

which is atypical for Barolo did not change my mind

(from 15+ year old vines)

Otherwise there is good volume and punch to the slightly less concentrated flavors that still manage to retain solid power on the lightly mineral-inflected finish that delivers fine length

full and sleekly muscled big-bodied flavors that are highly complex

Ramonet, Chassagne Montrachet Rouge other_regions_italy the sauvage and humusA cool, pure and peppery earth inflected combination reflects notes of primarily red berries with just a hint of dark currant. The round yet nicely detailed middle weight flavors are not especially dense, but I like the depth on the ever so mildly austere finale that flashes a touch of warmth. This manages to avoid the usual Chassagne rouge rusticity and is a wine that could easily be enjoyed young if thats your preference.
