Boasting a soft and yielding style, the 2011 Barolo Coste di Rose will appeal those looking for a more approachable Barolo. The wine is rich and dark with aromas of dark cherry, candied blackberry, spice, licorice and resin. The cherry component is dominant. But baking spice and cardamom also play supporting roles. The tannins are plush and rich and, overall, the wine shows a cheerful personality and an upfront character. This Barolo is well suited to near and medium-term drinking.

Black cherry, plum, leather and tar aromas and flavors get a lift from solid tannins in this red. The finish is long and fresh. Just needs time to meld. Best from 2019 through 2030. 70 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
