Tasting note
At first, ripe strawberries, then fresh and dried red cherries emerge. Complex nuances follow: chestnut, malt, carob. Mouthfeel boasts purity, freshness, gentle structure, cranberry-like tannins. Finish brings woody, herbal, floral scents, hinting at future complexity. Already a joy, could develop over 10+ years. An absolute delight to drink now and beyond
In the press
Very fresh, sweet raspberries with some floral undertones follow through to a full body with fine, creamy tannins that flow long and linear through the middle of the palate. From organically grown grapes. Best after 2024.
The 2017 Barolo Mosconi is a powerful, brooding wine. Black cherry, gravel, dried herbs, scorched earth, spice and leather add to an impression of gravitas. This is an especially somber, potent Barolo that needs time to soften. Even so, it will always be a brute. The substantial finish is a thing of beauty. The Barolo Mosconi emerges from the estates oldest vines, which are 70-80 years old, and is aged in barrique.
