2022 Domaine des Ardoisières Argile Rouge

I wanted to like this more than I do. High acidity and very red tone fruits, very primary, and alcohol levels at 12%. Just not a lot of going on here and the texture and flavour profile are much more table wine than fine Wine. Would love to revisit in five years and maybe it would improve with age but I’m not excited to have a second glass.

Dodgy Cork, but the wine held up for around 30 minutes before falling apart. And what a gorgeous wine it was for that period. The nose could almost be the Pan d’epices of a mature valosne romanee, but there is definitely the tar and Rose element to distinguish it.

For a young Barolo this is surprisingly forward and approachable. Delicious but marked by the high level of alcohol.
