Color seems not very advanced, but slightly less shiny. Touch of oxidation, not very aromatic a the moment. Maybe not a perfect bottle or in a weird spot right now. (NR)

Popped and poured this. Has been open a couple of hours. With a bit of air, beginning to strut its stuff. Solid dark ruby, lighter rim but no real sign of age. Very much a Nebbiolo nose to this, well-developed and quite forward. Nice. In the mouth, the balance between fruit and acid really shows nicely. This is drinking quite well, but can last for many a year going forward. Excellent Barbaresco. 5-13-17-8: 93/100.

Holy smokes. This is what Barbaresco should be. Enjoy now but it might improve with a little time
