Perfect with red sauce pasta. Integrated oak notes, terrific Nebbiolo cherry and anise notes. Day 2: oak is more noticeable, a bit too much for me.

Yesterday late afternoon I had the pleasure of tasting the 2016 Luciano Sandrone Le Vigne Barolo. At first taste I knew this was a special bottle of wine. All boxes were checked on the nose as well as the palate. On the nose were fully expressive notes of black cherry, strawberry, herbs, clove, clay pottery, rose petals, underbrush, tar and dusty soil. On the palate were delightful notes of dark cherries, strawberry, red plum, licorice, truffle, herbs, dried roses, a good mineral note and dusty earth. An outstanding wine from the word go, full bodied, well balanced with a smooth round mouthfeel, medium + acidity and medium + to high fine mouth coating grippy tannins that leaves you with a long pronounced fresh fruit dusty earth finish. This wine still has a lot to offer years from now. What a pleasure to have experienced this. I hope everyone's weekend is going well? Have a continued wonderful weekend. Please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia!

Almost perfect Nebbiolo nose, could be freer but has the perfect balance of bright mint, dark tar, warm balsamic and cool leather. Tightly composed structure, highly controlled dynamics of aromas and precisely placed flavors.
