Barolis lunch at Della Notte (Della Notte - Baltimore): Another unexpected greatness. The fruit is sweeter than the 85, chestnut, porcini, almond, very sweet fruit. Based on my past mature Monfortini, this is a smaller scale version of the big brother.
Balsamico, once again the resemblance to the 82 Monfortino is uncanny. It gains coffee, toffee, balsamic components. In the palate, fully matured, bright acidity, sweet fruit that reminds me a Madeira. Another memorable wine as I have never expected this wine to show like Monfortino.

Very happy with this - a mature Barolo without and disturbing funny smells. Just pure and deep. Excellent fruit. Long.
