Nebbiolo on Snooth
For reds: Pinot Noir, and Cabernet Sauvignon as long as they are ten years old ... past I have liked. So add Nebbiolo to the list. And Sangiovese, but some Chaintis seem overly alcoholic. For whites, Riesling and...

Well you got me going, Greg, so I went back and looked at my wine purchases ... noir, chardonnay, syrah, nebbiolo, grenache, riesling, sangiovese, tempranillo and 'others', roughly in that order. These were just my...
ruby purple in colour, lots of flavours of dark fruit, with a sweetish finish. Missing the usual tobacco, leather and violet flavors in most barbaresco. The tannins are sweet so the wine is approachable now but will age...
Hi kids, 31 year old sommelier from Central Massachusetts here. I'm looking ... grapes/wines include Nebbiolo (Barolo, Barb.), Corvina/Molinara/Rondinella (Amarone), Sangiovese (Bru, Nobile, Rosso) and the occasional...

I would have to say Pinot and Syrah are my top two in no particular order. Zin ... much experience with the Nebbiolo grape, but will make an effort this weekend to explore a little bit. Anything in particular I should...
First post. Woo hoo! Nebbiolo is easily my favorite grape as well, with Sangiovese a distant second. My least favorite grape is Pinot Noir, also easily. Even most of the pricy Burgs do very little for me, and New...

High acidity which helps to bring out the flavours. Herbs, smokey and anise. Long pleasent finish.

Hight acidity, intense tanins, full bodied. Dry fruits, dry roses, wood, pepper, truffle. Angular with awesome complexity. exceptional.
So Greg, my guess about Zinfandel in that article thread wasn't that far off, ... you listed in order there Nebbiolo, an aged California Cab and Syrah/Sangiovese tied for third, and I guessed Zin for fifth. So what...

So a question in one of these threads, or perhaps in a comments thread on one ... wines. My top three. 1 - Nebbiolo, now that wasn't a surprise 2 - Syrah, maybe that was more of a surprise 3 - Pinot Noir - Ok...

Bruno Giacosa, barbaresco 2001
A light ruby red color with a slightly orange rim. Initially, bright cherry fruit on the nose with rose petal and a woodsy mushroom undertone. Very pure nose that sang Barbaresco and with time the nose darkened and allowed the trademark of tar to rise from this wine’s bouquet. On the palette, medium bodied with raspberry and cranberry fruit and notes of tobacco on the long finish that turned to menthol and cherry. There’s a lot of chewy tannin that will take time to fade away before this wine can realize its true potential but the fruit was prominent enough to show that it should last the test of time.. This bottle was opened to early and even with the four hours of air it received in decanter, it didn’t quite show it’s true colors. I’d say this bottle needs a good 5 - 10 years before it should be sampled again.
That's sounds amazing, Greg. I've had Mascerallo's Barbera and I keep on meaning to try the Barolo but have yet to have the chance. Looks like It's time to start seeking some out.
