Il Poeta Barolo Riserva
2008 was a outstanding vintage in Barolo, producing complex and boldly structured wines with great aging potential. Fresh red berry, violet and dark cherry notes combine with hints of leather mocha gleamed from 15 years maturation including 18 months in oak barrels. With firm supple tannins supporting juicy fruit notes on the lingering finish, Il Poeta Riserva is the perfect accompaniment for full-flavored dishes such as risotto with truffles , braised meats and rich pasta dishes. I recommend decanting a few hours before serving.

This wine from Italy Pillastro Nero wine from Puglia Italy the best wine I drink
Light, fruity… very drinkable. Very nice!
The price was right. At that price I'd buy a lot more.
Have only tried 2 of the wines, but both were very good. This is really an exceptional value...and it helps me find wines worthy of a trip back!
