Fantastic wine! Gorgeous, elegant Barolo. Served with grilled steak from Five Dot Ranch. This wine was direct from the winery in 2010 and then in cellar conditions.

Itstarted off like it was going to be a bit maderized, but cleaned up nicely that the 30 minute mark and was smoking.

Took a full day to open up. Then it was lovely, smoky, cigars, still some very ripe blackberries.

Surprisingly still in tact for a 49 year old bottle. Upon opening the wine was sharp with acid, but after 5 hours of decanting the wine softened to allow notes of dried rose petals, cherries, and cranberries through. The wine has a tawny oxidized hue and has an ethereal translucence due to its age. This is probably a few years beyond its prime, but still incredibly enjoyable.

Solid tannin (though a bit softened) and blood orange acid, plus stunning aroma of strawberry. Astounding!
