Luigi Oddero, Barolo Rocche Rivera 2014 Bergstrom pork and pasta with wine

pork and pasta with wine or tomato sauces

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

with notes of apricot

A perfect equilibrium between intensity and finesse

A beautifully layered wine with opulent fruit flavours of white peach

Luigi Oddero, Barolo Rocche Rivera 2014 Bergstrom pork and pasta with winePale 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)
