The 2009 Long Now shows fabulous balance in its supple fruit and understated personality. Silky and elegant from start to finish, the 2009 shows off layers of dark black fruit, licorice and new leather. Today the wine is a touch compact, but there is a good chance it will open up with further time in bottle. Sweet floral notes are woven throughout the finish. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. These are among the finest wines I have ever tasted from Giorgio Pelissero. The 2008 harvest was very much on the later side and began in mid-October. The Vanotu was aged in 100% new French oak barrels, while the Nubiola and Tulin were aged approximately 60% in cask and 40% used French oak. Pelissero credits higher-quality barrels as one of the main reasons his wines are more elegant than in the past, but he isn’t giving himself enough credit.Importer: Vinifera Imports, Ronkonkoma, NY; tel.
