Classic color, orange at the rim. Nose opens with some reduction, the red fruits have a roasted tint, there's some complexity, but it's too coiled today. Palate is medium-bodied, nicely weighted, balanced, but the woods poking out and the fruit's most a now show. This is a big wine that needs at least 5 years, probably best in 10, and beyond. Fairly serious stuff; developing, with good potential. 14,5% abv., drink 2023- 2037. recommended
More savory than the base Barolo, with olives and nettles, and some iodine in addition to the fruit. It is pure and clear especially for '11. A little medicine cabinet as well. Lovely roses and cherry fruit c air. Supple and with an ease to drinking it. Easy to like. 90
