with notes of apricot

heady fruit

This red wine is unfined and unfiltered

The mid palate has rich ripe black cherry and sloe and although the tannins are firm at the moment there is sweetness more depth of fruit at the back

all qualities that make it an excellent choice for drinking now and over the next few years

Luigi Oddero, Barolo Rocche Rivera 2014 Bergstrom with notes of apricotPale brick garnet. Overripe and cooked, wild strawberry fruit surprisingly ripe and sweet character. Mint and rose aromatic lift, with just a hint of tar and slate. Firm to high, powerful, chalky tannins, with a certain lightness of fruit, typical of the vintage. Nevertheless, theres fair length of perfume, and complexity is developing. Tim Jackson MW, jancisrobinson. com (16)
