Roche Bellene, Chevalier Montrachet Size:6x750ml The 2010 Barolo Monvigliero showsFirm reduction. The unusually supple and exceptionally rich big bodied flavors exhibit good minerality though the tannic, super dry and austere finale is attenuated and even a bit short. As the description suggests, this is presently awkward and disjointed and its tough to judge whether it will better harmonize in time or not.
