Community Tasting Note

  December 3, 2011 - decanted for 4 hours, very little sediment. nose has earth, cherry, mineral, sage, and lightly herbed cherry. the palate has lots of cherry with herb, light spice, and mineral with a moderate length finish. lots of tannins which have softened considerably since my last bottle, but they still need a few more years before peak. well balanced food wine that paired well with minestrone. easily the best barolo i have had, in my limited experience. i do believe it will get better with a few more years in bottle. easy 94 now, 96ish in the future. drink after 2014, if you can wait.
