Note di degustazione
Good medium red. Rather cool on the nose for 2009: redcurrant, rust, dried flowers and beef bouillon, along with a light leathery rusticity. Shows good texture and a light touch, but with a slight dryness to the flavors of plum, raspberry and marzipan. Finishes with a suggestion of olive.

The 2009 Barolo Serralunga is pointed, direct and expressive. Firm yet well-integrated tannins support plum, tobacco, rose petals, smoke, incense and menthol notes in an impeccably crafted wine that over delivers. This mid-weight, juicy Barolo is a terrific showing from Sergio Germano.
The 2009 Barolo shows great structure and a fuller frame to support the generous fruit and spice tones woven deep within its texture. There-s a very immediate and soft quality to the fruit that means this young Barolo definitely needs more time to find focus and voice. Give it another three to five years. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2025. Importers: Oliver McCrum; Petit Pois Corp - c/o Moore Brothers; Voliovino; Vigneti D;Italia; Morgan Import; D.B.Wine Selection; Distinnctin Italian Wine
