Auction Base – Barrique nr. 9

Galloni’s Opinion

We’re moving on to the third flight. And to me, this is the flight of wines that maybe has the most to offer, because the wines are all from south-west facing parcels in the middle of the vineyard. And so, a lot of times those are considered the very best locations. So, these four barrels to me are particularly good. The nine is the next wine in the series. It has this really beautiful red fruit character, a lot of energy, dried floral notes, citrus and beautiful understated depth that really starts to emerge with a little bit of time in the glass.
