Some mature notes already but the tannins are still alive. They are evolving at a different rate. I'd drink this soon and decant it for a an hour or too. Good sense of place. You can tell you're drinking Barolo. Soy and other savory notes are present with a bit of a floral nose. There's also that characteristic cellar scent coming off. It's like a pleasant funghi smell. Dusty long finish. Good effort.

Modern Barolo that has aged tremendously well. All in check.
This has another 5 years of life easily.
