2 hour decant. Entering what I expect is a long drinking window. Muted nose but firm palate with an exceptional finish and saline like persistence. Cranberry, cherry, spice notes dominate with classic Barolo tones in the background. Classy and requires patience.

More developed now. Taut and savory notes of leather, tar, cinnamon, cloves and hints of truffle. The Gaja energy and finesse keeps the whole package pleasurable through the long finish. A touch rustic but simultaneously elegant and pure.

Classy, seductive wine. Red and black fruit with subtle forest and saline notes on the palate. Drank over 3 nights. Definitely better on day 2. Day 3 was maybe a little better still. Huge potential I would think, but also hard to resist now.
