great example of ovello, darker in profile than most barbaresco without the weight - notes of tar, cedar & florals. Definitely in its window, there's no rush.

Needs a little more time. Had it against the '98 and that one was more integrated, rounded and expressive. This is a little tight, but it's not bad by any means. Shows notes of dark fruits, some forest floor but tannins are a bit less rounded. Very enjoyable with our Bolognese sauce.
