Cantina della Stazione Barbera d’Alba DOC 2021

Massolino Barolo 2019
$110.00“The 2019 Barolo is a very serious wine. Readers looking for an easygoing, entry-level Barolo will not find that here.

Crushed rocks, red/purplish fruit and dried flowers emerge with some coaxing, but this is really […]

To make recent comparisons, 2019 is dense of extract with a bulwark of firm, marked tannins. It is frequently compared to 2013, by others to 2016. […]
