Tasting notes
Good full red. Aromas of plum syrup, coffee and mocha, with a fresh cherry note emerging with air. Round and pliant in the mouth, with raspberry, mocha, coffee and tar flavors framed by an edge of acidity. Finishes with substantial ripe but slightly drying tannins that call for aging.

Enzo Boglietti's 2007 Barolo Fossati is a beautifully radiant, generous wine in this vintage. Sweet roses, tar, licorice and succulent red cherries come together beautifully in the Fossati. This is yet another Barolo from a site that is less-favored in most vintages, but that totally outperforms in 2007. The round, harmonious finish leaves a lasting impression. This is a gorgeous Barolo, and one of the finest wines I have ever tasted at this address.
