Really plush fruit. Plum and underbrush. Very balanced. Solid and good.

Opened several hours prior to service and poured into a ship’s decanter. The 1967 “Riserva” pours a ruddy garnet color with a transparent core and a slightly orange-ish rim. Medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. Some slight signs of fine sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous but the fruit is still showing so well! A mix of ripe and desiccated red and dark fruits with forest floor, porcini, dried roses, tar, some tobacco, dried herbs, dusty earth and exotic spices. On the palate, the wine is dry; medium+ tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long a slightly savory. This is drinking so well right now and I reckon it’s on a plateau of pleasure. It almost seems evergreen considering its vigor. Drink now because you’ve already waited long enough!

Much lighter in color & weight compared with other Borgogno Riservas tasted at our Nebbiolo fest; other vintages like 1961 & 1952 surpassed it but still showcased classic Old Barolo traits of Rose petals and reduced tar.

Good but lacking focus--a bit muddied. Cloudy color, plenty of blood and iron, and smelled better than it was on the palate. Fun but not spectacular.
