Giuseppe Rinaldi Barolo Brunate La Coste 2009

Barolo, Italy

WineSaint
Seductive and rich, with dark cherry, leather and earthy mushroom notes flowing beautifully. The texture is creamy and inviting. Unusual accessibility for Brunate. Yet firm tannins provide the backbone for long aging. Forest floor and mineral undertones add complexity to the generous fruit. This captures traditional Barolo character while showing the vintage's generous side. Drink 2025-2040.
