Pelassa Barolo DOCG 2016, Italy
The bouquet of this wine is one that will either attract you or compell you on the first sniff. I do hope it attracts you - there’s aromas of blood orange and iron, cherry and desicated fruits, date and old plum, garrigue and chalk soil, there’s some floral tones and barrel spice. Dry, firm, higher acidity and salivating. Flavours repeat many times over, a wine of persistency and impact on the palate, it challenges the senses and tannins dissovle saliva. There’s no mistaking this wine has earthiness and barrel impact, the fruits do have a voice with a mix of light red fruits, mostly dried. A lovely wine with a complex lengthy finish. Great drinking from today and through 2030+.
