  Another bottle of this having been drinking these over the last 6-7 years. Tonight with risotto with asparagus and langostino. This remains spot-on and true to the comune (La Morra fruit). Taught black cherry, roasted mushrooms, rose water. A bit drying on the finish. This should be drunk up. For the price--$20 (yeah, $20)--ridiculous.

  Check in after another year. This remains a lovely La Morra Barolo with huge nose, delicate balance, finesse, and purity. Typical neb profile. Long finish. This wine continues to punch above its weight.

  Really good ...economical barolo! Can see how this needed time...great vintage. Concentrated juice that just starting to integrate now...cherry core...dusty....spice, a little tar and tobacco. slightly disjointed that I think a few more years or more air will help.

  Checking in five years later. Seriously, has it really been five years?!
  Time in the box has definitely done this wine well. Nose is now huge with candied cherries, berry liquor, camphor and mint. In the mouth, there are gobs of red fruit, licorice, and tarry notes. Tastes almost new-worldy now, but not at all in a bad way. This is really nice and I am glad I didnt get rid of these. The one downside is that EtOH comes in a bit strong at 15 seconds into the finish.
