Single blind. Whoa, what an attractive nose that has layers of red and black cherry, intense florals, tar and smoke. Drinking deliciously with elegance and power with a long, enticing floral finish. Young. Guessed Barbaresco, and one of the Giacosas. Impressive but perhaps surprising that it's so open aleady.

Barbaresco vs. Barolo (Chicago, IL): Served single blind. Very dark complexion relative to the rest of the wines; (in hindsight, surprisingly) mature, and relatively prominent alcohol here. Sweet, darker fruit, and relatively plush and opulent. I thought that this was the Barolo of the flight.
