Tons of sediment. Opens with notes of dark plum, dusty fruit. Firms up with air, the fruit is dark, there are marks of tar and tobacco. Marked tannins, not fully resolved. I’m not in love with this wine, it’s not bad, it’s just not very charming right now.

Very good classic barbaresco. Stays true to the vintage with leaner fruits and great structure. This is young and i like it, but i cant wait to try this again in 8 years. Classic barbaresco!

Old-school Nebbiolo, dry red fruit, roses and tar. Lots of material here, gentle tannins not fully resolved. Got better and better with air. Lovely.
