Mature, elegant, balanced, mid-weight on first might, but became lean and a bit shrill on night two. Fully mature now so drink up. Score reflects a bland of both evenings...

Checking in on 2005 #Barolo tonight, the @viettivino Castiglione is showing intense perfumed red fruits and spice on the nose. Notes of pomegranate, tart cherry, clove, leather and rose all formed in the glass. On the palate, a driving-force of concentrated red fruit and spice was bolstered by grippy tannin, while a wave of brisk acidity prompted the taste buds to water, leaving a finish of sweet, fresh cherry, herbal tea, spice and inner floral tones. Still showing its youthful tannin throughout the experience, but this has all the right ingredients to be a true classic in another 5-10 years. To think that this is Vietti's entry level Barolo--Wow.

Okay. Took awhile to open up and then needed food.

So good. Still tannic and powerful, but drinking great with good structure. Cherry and leather primarily, but also nicely earthy.

2005- the first sip left the back of my throat/tongue feeling dry. Smelt old but not too old.
