flecks of truffle and smoke emerging with aeration

delicious and attractively clean finale

The 2018 Barolo Cannubi is a bright and lively expression with wild fruit and cassis over a tight and elegant mouthfeel

but there's a clay lens running through the McCrone Vineyard

Albert Bichot (Clos Frantin), Vosne Romanee Clos Frantin Size:6x750ml flecks of truffle and smoke(the blend is mostly from Damaudes with a small proportion of Hautes Maizires). There is just enough reduction to shave the top notes from the red currant, lavender, violet and subtle spice inflected aromas. I like the seductive texture of the satiny flavors that contrast somewhat with the firm and mildly robust but not really rustic finish. 88 2024+
