The 2006 Barolo San Rocco is sensual and enveloping

round and succulent medium weight flavors possess an almost salty and equally refreshing finish that is notably firmer

This problem did not occur in 2012

It soars to new heights of elegance and power

round and impressively scaled flavors possess excellent richness as well as plenty of wonderful tension before terminating in an explosive mineral-inflected finish that is quite firm and austere

Aldo Conterno, Barolo Bussia Cicala other_regions_italy The 2006 Barolo San RoccoA gorgeous red, scented with rose, mint, menthol, cherry and leather notes, with intense flavors matching the aromas. Dense with tannins, finely wrought and dovetailing on the long, detailed finish, this is very harmonious, yet will need time to fully express itself. Best from 2018 through 2038. 200 cases imported.
