Two La Spinetta's

2005 La Spinetta Vigneto Starderi Barbaresco;
Deep ruby, great fruit intencity, intence of roses, tar, liquorice, cherries, dark berries, fresh acidity, ripe tannins, complex, very intence in everything, especially as a Barbaresco, no elegance at this stage. How will it age? 91

2005 La Spinetta Gallina Barbaresco;
Deep ruby, and a very different animal, this is still in the style of the above, such intencity and complexity, dark fruits, liquorice, but it manages to be elegant somehow, and a truly fantastic aftertaste. 93
