Community Tasting Note

    May 28, 2021 - This is how a big Cru Barolo should be with "a few years" of aging.
    In a perfect window now.
    Ultra complex nose, licorice, weed, herbs, dust, earth, salmiak, smoke, roses, tar, spice box, cedar wood, cigar box, tobacco, orange peel, leather, furniture polish, mushrooms, wet forest floor, red cherries and truffles.
    Taste of roses, tar, sweet licorice, cherries, truffles and crazy delicious sunripe and sweet raspberries.
    Round, velvety and floral, perfectly balanced with no rough edges and incredible length & depth.
    This is truly an extraordinary Barolo made the old school way.
    Not all the way up to the 2001 that happens to be one of the absolutely best Barolos ever made, but not far behind.
    Perfect tonight - will keep for many years and continue to develop and deliver even more pleasure.
