(86% tempranillo and 14% garnacha)

the 1997 Solaia was super-concentrated

graceful Barolo Cascina Francia looks to be accessible relatively early

The is both excellent volume and richness to the round and fleshy yet solidly powerful flavors that conclude in a lengthy finish where nuances of youthful austerity and warmth slowly emerge

this is wine for 25-30 or more years of aging

Rene Rostaing, Cote Rotie Classique other_regions (86% tempranillo and 14% garnacha)A really delicious creamy peppercorn sauce nose, with smoked bacon and highly aromatic spice that grabs the attention. Round tannin, attractive smoke, meat juice, cracked pepper and black fruit, true Syrah all over. Good. (RH)
