1998 Voerzio Dolcetto d'Alba

[hotwine]

Got caught in a horrendous downpour this afternoon while working at the ranch.... must have dumped three inches in an hour. Still raining like hell as I left, sliding in the mud on the gravel lane (Yeah, right. Where's the gravel?) It stopped only 15 miles from the ranch, like flipping a switch. Spent the next 100 miles thinking of supper with another Dolcutto. Poured about a pint of rainwater out of each boot when I finally got home and went straight to the cellar for another bottle. The cat didn't like the "squish, squish" as I walked by and high-tailed it for the tractor shed. Nice Alba, which is already nearly gone.
