March 13, 2024 - 2006 Barolo (Trattoria One Fifth, NYC.): [Double decanted around 11am.] Smoky black fruit nose. In the mouth, elegant red fruit. Long, complex finish of graphite and red fruit. A terrific wine, but I think it will be even better in 5 years.

December 22, 2023 - Herbal, medicinal and soy sauce which is nothing like a Bartolo at the beginning. Needed airtime and then flourished with fine posh leather and that candied sweet strawberries notes, which finally drew some parallel to the maker. The body was rather dark and rustic. Conterno Sensory really helped to push this wine up a notch, where the aromatics were struggling to unfurl. I can't help feeling that this is a little heat damaged? Can't shake off that soy sauce, pruney note, maybe provenance.

December 21, 2023 - Piedmont theme: Impressively, someone managed to nail this as a Bartolo since this was very different from the post-2010 wines that I have tried. Thought this was rather extracted with stewed pruney fruit. Some Vosne-like five spice notes. Read some wines from this era have been prematurely oxidised so maybe this was another example?
