Neb-fest: Nebbiolo & Truffle Dinner (Chicago, IL): Very good but not exceptional Barolo. Very typical notes in a traditional style. Drinks very well now and should age. Just didn't stand out amongst a varied and exciting lineup.

Ripe red fruit on the initial nose. On the palate, nicely resolved silky tannins. Somewhat bold fruit and alcohol, but not over the top. Brick red, with elements of earth and leather. Likely on a declining trajectory - consider drinking remaining bottles soon.
