This wine needs heaps of air. It was completely closed off for almost 2 hours. Once it did open it turned out to be a brooding barolo with deep intensity and energy. Will not even look at the other bottles I have for at least 5+ (likely 10+) years.

I liked this, but this wine has a long way to go for my palate. The tannins are still quite front and center though there is ample acid and fruit hiding back there.

Brown-ruby, slow moving tears and viscous@14% abv. Aromas: Roses, tar, leather. Dry, med + acidity, high tannin, full body. Palate maraschino cherry, chocolate, Kirsch, mocha. Elegant and balanced with gravitas. Very long layered puckering finish. Complex and expressive. Wow. Very good. Has years life left. 2 more bottles left.

Ready to drink. Not complex but still a great pour.
