Community Tasting Note

• Tony Ling Likes this wine: 94 points

  December 19, 2020 - Slow-oxed for 14 hours prior to serving into SY le Subtil glass for Burgundy (“Flower” day): Pale ruby with very fine deposits.
  
  Rose petals, flora, red berry fruits. Fresh white spices, powdery cosmetics. Pure and ethereal.
  
  Just love the acidity-tannin structure of this wine. Texturally perfect for a Barolo at this stage for me. Saline minerality. Lingering finish. Amazing quality.
  
  Clearly one of if not the best 2003 ever, but what a showcase of the ability of this producer. 94 points easy.
  
  2 hours into serving (19 hours upon first uncorked): Secondary aromas and a lot of great mature red fruits emerged, the structure softened and really adds to the hedonistic quality of this bottle. Wow wine for its vintage but not unexpected from this producer. Incredible wine here. More like 94-95 points.
  
  2.5 hours, last few pours: A little ashy / very slightly mossy.
