2000 Poderi Aldo Conterno Barolo Cicala- Italy, Piedmont, Langhe, Barolo (1/22/2011)
A really lovely piece of work. And I chose that word carefully as there is clearly a fusion - well done fusion - of the natural makings of Barolo and the cellar craft. Lots of tarry nectar notes with earthy bass notes. Then layered with toast, balsam and cool blasted fruits. Like a rave driven by jungle drums and bass layered over with a sweet ass vocal dub. All the notes harmonized so my props for synthesis of craft and nature. Really enjoyed this.

great note Andrew and fun to read, I just had the 99 Cicala and came away with a similar impression, a synth of high quality natural material + very sklilled winemaking.
