Tuesday, February 4, 2020 - Tasted at the Barolo and Barbaresco World Opening Tasting Event in NYC. Traditionally styled made with long maceration and aged in botte grande. Nicely balanced with cherry, charcoal and licorice underdones. Solid and pretty easy to drink. Enjoyable now with a decant.

Cheers!

I can introduce you for a more personal visit. In fact, I’m having dinner with him tonight.

I totally agree on the 2016's vs. 2015's...It was a stark contrast at the tasting and so consistently the case.
