Note di degustazione
The early harvest, naturally firm Nebbiolo tannin and more tannin from a high percentage of new barrels has ultimately proven to be too much for the 2005 Barolo Arborina's mid-weight personality. There is good aromatic presence in the glass, but my distinct impression is that the 2005 is a wine that will never be totally in balance.

Good dark red. Very ripe aromas of black cherry and roasted plum, with a note of balsamic vinegar. Lush, silky and sweet, with a distinctly juicy quality giving definition and lift to the chewy dark fruit flavors. Finishes long and ripely tannic, with a suggestion of chocolate.
Racy, complex, nervy nose. Masses of grip. Serious stuff. (JR)
Corino's 2005 Barolo Arborina offers a very representative expression of this La Morra site in its focused red fruits, sweet herbs, flowers and spices. There is plenty energy and harmony here. Pretty, floral notes that reappear on the finish give the Arborina a nice sense of balance as well as proportion.
