Colgin, Cariad Vintage:2012 cherry compote and licorice

cherry compote and licorice

Fruit thrives from 220 to 280 meters above sea level with full southern exposures facing La Morra

and the 2015 is a blend of 85% Garnacha and 15% Syrah

A broad-based nose combines both upper and lower register fruit aromas

The Brovia 2015 Barolo Brea Vigna Ca' Mia offers good balance and an authentic representation of the vintage

Colgin, Cariad Vintage:2012 cherry compote and licoriceThe highlight among these 2015s, the Cariad is a total knock out. Dark, vibrant and powerful in the glass, the 2015 offers notable energy to balance the bold flavors of the year. In this vintage, the Cariad has quite a bit more Franc than is typically the case, a decision that has paid off beautifully. I very much like the sense of energy here. Antonio Galloni
