pomegranate and hints of rose petal

Currently showing some rigidity and firm rockiness on the nose

The robust and overtly muscular medium-weight plus flavors possess grand cru level power and impressive drive on the explosively long and stunningly complex finish

The only thing it needs is a few more years in the bottle

Mauro Veglio, Riserva other_regions_italy pomegranate and hints of roseThe 2019 Barolo Riserva Rocche Dell'Annunziata pours a dark red brick color and offers a concentrated and very ripe profile, with notes of baked plums, melding spices, leather, balsamic, and resinous chewing tobacco. Full bodied, it fills the palate with a deep, savory feel, fleshy tannins, and a grounding and ripe persistent finish. For my taste, its lacking in freshness, but it should hold up over the next 10 years.
