  Color: brown garnet. Medium
  Nose: that burnt pie crust and cherry that talks to you about old barbaresco. This was not a good year I surmise, and you can detect the oxidization - the madeirization almost
  Palate: tannins high and acid high, fruit receeding. Nice tertiaries in the dry raisin space
  Finish: medium
  
  Old nebbiolo over the edge here i would guess. Still I polished up the bottle so? Best 1h out the bottle room temp

  Wise old copper-brown color. Floral nose with classic Barbaresco aromas of dried rose petals, cola, and tar. Floral palate full of dried rose petals. Slow, lingering finish. Time to drink this up because the fruit is just beginning to recede while the tannins remain strong. Still, a good representation of Barbaresco expression and a good pairing for pizza.
