Longest cork I've ever seen - protecting a mid-weight Barolo that showed pretty modestly overall. Decanted for an hour, it was reticent on the nose and displayed typical Barolo notes in the mouth. I can't see any benefit in cellaring longer. A pleasant week-night Nebbiolo.

Very mellow, has matured well, good balance... However I think it is past prime. This seemed more like a mature Pinot than a barolo.
