Beskrivelse

Domenico Clerico - Ginestra Ciabot Mentin Barolo 2019

Denne vidunderlige Barolo er stadig i sin ungdom. Den vil formentligt først peake omtrent 10 fra høståret. Vi anbefaler som sædvanligt, at du køber en kasse, mens prisen er god. Herefter kan du åbne en flaske med lange mellemrum og følge vinens udvikling. Lad den gerne få noget luft, inden du nyder den. 2-4 timer er bestemt ikke for meget.

Anmelderne siger...

Monica Larner for Robert Parker: "The Domenico Clerico 2019 Barolo Ginestra Ciabot Mentin (with 5,500 bottles made with fruit from vines planted in 1978) is a bit closed initially. This is a trait I found across a vintage that gives us good reason to bet on long bottle-aging potential. There is dark fruit and spice with licorice and grilled herb. Rusty mineral nuances also emerge slowly from the bouquet. This wine needs a double decant if consumed on the young side, but you're better off waiting. I came back to my open sample 24 hours later, and the wine was singing beautifully." Smagt august 2023
Om smagningen af de nye årgange: "This is a terrific set of new wines from Domenico Clerico owner Giuliana Viberti and winemaker Oscar Arrivabene. Oscar has made a few tweaks to winemaking, moving away from smaller oak barrels to embrace large casks instead. For the first time, both the 2019 Barolo Ginestra Pajana and the Barolo Ginestra Ciabot Mentin went into 5,000-liter wood vessels. These fundamental adjustments change the profile of the wines for the better, giving them more elegance and nuances, as these new releases demonstrate."

James Suckling: "Perfumed and beautiful with sliced berries, cantaloupe, citrus and flowers on the nose. Full-bodied with juicy tannins that are chewy and pretty. Focused and savory in the finish. Very transparent and focused. Try after 2027."
