Castello Calosso Barbera D’Asti (Rodotiglia) 2000 Piedmont
Dark ruby / garnet nose of prunes, meat, liquorice and leather - medium bodied and quite closed on the palette, acidic kick and tannic - was hoping for more from this - will benefit from some aging - I hope the fruit wakes up a bit.
After 2-3 hours this improved immensely and came into focus a bit - still reticent but balanced at least.
89-91pts
