Giuseppe Rinaldi Barolo Tre Tine 2014

Red
Barolo, Italy

WineSaint

Tightly coiled and angular, showing the vintage's harsh edge throughout. Red cherry and earth emerge alongside dried herbs and leather, but the structure feels jagged and unforgiving. The hail damage has left its mark. This Tre Tine carries a persistent severity that cellaring may soften but likely won't erase. Drink 2024-2034.

Giuseppe Rinaldi

Barolo purist in Barolo's most traditionalist mold. Rinaldi farms Brunate and Bussia alongside declassified Langhe bottlings, working with long macerations, large old oak, and minimal intervention.
