Casetta 2008 Riserva (Barolo)

Country: Italy / Piedmont
Variety: Nebbiolo
Winery: Casetta / Riserva

Initially a bit closed, this opens with aromas of leather, leafy underbrush, tilled soil, wild berry and a whiff of cellar floor. The palate is still primary, displaying red cherry, sage and menthol alongside tightly knit tannins. Drink after 2018.
