La Morra. Tasted blind. Just mid ruby with orange tinges. Dark fruit with exotic spice and a hint of Moroccan leather. Youthful and compact even if the fruit is very ripe. Fresh acidity and finely chiselled tannins. Needs more time. Old school in a good way. (WS)

The 2017 Barolo La Serra needs time to come together, but it could turn out to be quite good. Sweet red cherry, kirsch, spice, mint and wild flowers give the 2017 a very pretty upper register to play off its translucent personality. Firm La Serra tannins lurk beneath, which lends a slightly nervous, tense feel.
