2013 Top 100 - Rank # 79
The 2008 Azelia San Rocco is a stylish Barolo, bursting with ripe juicy cherries and strawberry fruit which is followed by licorice, mint leaves, floral and hints of tar. The ripe fruit is wrapped in polished tannins, balanced with a nice touch acidity providing lift as it enters the long, juicy finish. Although this will be hard to resist, I would recommend some cellaring. (Best 2015-2028) - April, 2013 (JD)
