Rose, iris, wild berry and baking spice aromas merge with scents of new leather and a balsamic menthol note on this stunning and classically crafted Barolo. The structured polished palate delivers juicy Marasca cherry, crushed raspberry, pipe tobacco and licorice framed in tightly knit noble tannins and bright acidity. It's going to just keep getting better and better over the next few decades... Wine Enthusiast

Young but showing everything you want in a classic elegant style. Tar, roses, spice form tannins and bright acidity. Really great!

At first, painfully tannic. Decanted for about 4 hours and it became a little softer while maintaining the beautiful aromatics, and lessening the attack of the medicinal cherry. On the finish are florals and leather with tannins returning with a vengeance. It may be hard to tell, but I loved it.

Wow now I have a better idea of the craze around Barolo. So much flavor on the finish herbs, balsamic, basil 40-50 second finish powerhouse! Needs more time to age
