Decanted 2-3 hours, and tasted with Palo Scavino 2001 Bric del Fiasc, and 2007 Domenico Clerico Ciabot Mentin (Ginestra). We found this yet very primary... tho more giving than our Clerico Ginestra. Paired with beautifully aged wagyu ribeye, the wine was not adequately integrated & expressive, unfortunately. The quality & potential seem assured, but, I think 5-10 more years in proper cellar would be well rewarded.

An excellent example of what a perfectly aged Barolo should be. Beautiful color, enticing nose. Drinking well. Likely will for 8-10 more. Sadly, only 2 left.

Drinking really well. Was a bit worried about keeping this too long but the wine is wonderful. Dark cherry, cedar, earth. Looking forward to having this with a black pepper pork tenderloin.
