  Pleasant and well-balanced after a 4-hour decant and rebottling. If you have this one, drink it now, as I doubt much will be gained by further aging.

  Medium garnet with moderate bricking/ clearing at rim
  Medium plus aromas of red berry/ plum with high toned dark florals and bitter tar notes
  Medium bodied with palate of bright red cherry and dried/fresh herbaceousness
  Medium plus fine and well integrated tannins with medium plus acidity and medium alcohol
  Medium plus length led by fruit and tannins
  Drinking well now - could hold but not seeing an improvement
  Easy drinking but well made Barolo - great wine for price paid $30-40

  Medium ruby with extensive bricking
  Medium plus aromas of red fruit / rose/ strawberry and touch of cinnamon with mild VA
  Medium plus palate of red fruit/ plum with wet earth
  High tannins - fine grained and felt on teeth and gums
  Medium plus acidity with great length and medium plus alcohol
  This wine markedly improved next day in a corked bottle - tannins more integrated and fruit character more dominant
  Would recommend holding 3-5 yrs but enjoyable now

  Pale ruby with extensive bricking. Medium aromas of cherry with underlying floral/violets - moderate VA noted. Medium (+) palate of cherry/ black cherry and tar with high tannins though fairly well integrated at this point. I find this quite enjoyable though somewhat one dimensional for a Barolo. May benefit from more bottle age, will open again in 3-4 yrs.
