Thursday, December 30, 2021 - Decanted For 1.5 hours fantastic nose palette and finish. Showing both power and elegance with dark meaty and earthy fruit. Smooth and silky. This is why Altare is my favorite Barolo maker that I’ve tasted so far.

Left 1/2 of the bottle to revisit Friday New Year’s Eve. Altare’s 1996 Barolo Brunate is my all time favorite Barolo. I added a tasting note for that wine on this site.

New Year’s Eve. This wine became more nuanced and fine but still very persistent. As this second evening went on and the wine received more air it became bigger and even more persistent.

I think my bottle of this was in very good condition so if you do have some of this in your cellar and it is in very good condition this wine has a long life ahead of it even though it is very beautiful today. A real pleasure to have wines from this winemaker in one’s cellar
