From the back of my vault comes this well aged and earthy, but still very vibrant, 2012 Alessandria Barolo.
The very engaging ruby/garnet Appearance is supported by perfumed, dried red fruit and woodland herb aromatics, plus a smidgen of fragrant baking spice nuances.
On the slightly lean palate it is medium bodied, balanced, with medium+ acidity and soft, mouth coating tannins that are bound up with flavors of coffee bean and spice.

Very bright, a lot of acidity, fewer tannins than expected. A real modern take on Barolo. Taste a bit of stems and green character.
