Aged beautifully. Brown when poured. Initial bouquet pungent with tanins at taste. Within 30 minutes, mellow with hint of spice. Taste of chocolate. At an hour velvet after taste. Very enjoyable hour

Beautiful 20 year old Barolo that was purchased at the Cantina in October 2004. Light brown color evident at edges and opened up after about 30 minutes. Tannins disappeared and there were lots of raisins/dark cherry and very earthy. Drink soon!!

Classic nebbiola nose of leather, tobacco and other interesting elements. A big wine with a long finish and drinking very well. I hesitate to score it but am sure it will give great pleasure for a few years to come.

Ripe dark fruit, plenty of power, some oaky and earthy notes and a firm finish. Still early in the drinking window, with some room to improve.
