The 2017 Barolo Ravera di Monforte is dominated by searing tannins that are hard to get past. Dried cherry, leather, tobacco and dried herbs struggle to emerge. It will be interesting to see if the Ravera comes together in bottle. I think it will, but there is no denying the wine is completely unapproachable today.
