Community Tasting Note

Friday, March 23, 2012 - Darker fruited than expected, evoking more baked plums than bright cherries. This seems mature, soft around the edges, the tannins are relaxed and the palate seems somewhat murky. More worn than a bottle with Yaacov almost two years ago. This has never really been a knock-out wine, and now it's mature but doesn't really deliver any tertiary or even much secondary greatness. This is a good, mature '98 Barolo, but it doesn't really provide a great Giacosa experience. No degradation overnight, which is a nice surprise, along with pretty strawberry pastile notes.
