Barolo, Italy

WineSaint
Dark and brooding from the first pour, black cherry, tobacco, dried herbs, menthol and a streak of licorice running through the core. This is a serious, savory Verduno with real weight behind it. The tannins are grippy and uncompromising right now, lending a stern, almost forbidding structure that demands patience. Give it time.
