Spinetta, Barolo Campe other_regions_italy I have no doubt that

I have no doubt that in time further treasures will emerge from beneath the surface of primary and secondary aromas

There is excellent volume to the intense and tautly muscular middle weight plus flavors that culminate in an explosively long

the Alpine is positively stellar today

A hint of reduction is going to need time in bottle to dissipate

As the description suggests the balance isn’t perfect but there is so much underlying material that my score offers the benefit of the doubt that this will better harmonize with a few years of bottle age

Spinetta, Barolo Campe other_regions_italy I have no doubt that2000 La Spinetta Barolo Campe shows an inky dark color. With a nose of over ripe, jammy blueberry, blackberry, wood and raisin. Big, fat and concentrated, the wine shows a little heat along with dry tannins in the opulent, ripe, black cherry flavored finish. I wasn't a fan of Barolo before tasting this wine. This bottle, which is atypical for Barolo did not change my mind.
