Perhaps a little better than the last bottle 2 months ago. Tasty, fairly typical, more modern style Barbaresco. Fairly youthful color with little bricking. Nose slightly muted but showing some tar, florals and cherry. Palate was a little closed even after an extended decant and even the next day. Palate fairly dark edged wit black cherry, tar and some minerals. Still pretty lively but ready to drink and probably should be in the next few years.

Decanted around 3pm and tasted over 7 hours. Fairly significant new oak influence here, obvious on the nose and the palate. Rich, dark and dense and nicely textured. There is leathery tobacco and dark cherry some hints of floral elements more like violets than roses. Seems a little hot and has a bitter note on the finish.

Tight and astringent initially, but very enjoyable after an hour decant and better still through the end. Floral notes and light and dark red fruit flavors.

What a wonderful textbook Barbaresco. Very floral, even violets on the nose. Res fruit, fresh oregano and lemon zest, hint of hint meat. Delicious and at the begining of its drinking window.

Al tamelijk wat evolutie, maar super geur en zeer lekker.
