Palate- fresh cherry fruit with a texture, plenty of tannins, pronounced spices with chalky & pithy notes, & some oak with more fruit & possibly some tar with medium acidity on the finish. Full bodied. The oak is quite prominent but not overly intrusive. This came across as very young & could definitely benefit from some time in the cellar, but was also extremely enjoyable.

That combination of tannin, wood, red fruit and acids. Sublimely powerful. But lacks finesse and elegance. Keep another 10 years

Decanted for 2 hours, dark fruits & tar, spices, on the palate very elegant, dusty tannins, modern Barolo

Modern & sexy but still with years ahead, its a pleasant Barolo but lacking real soul
