Sunday, May 21, 2023 - Wonderful, balanced wine, but still young, drink 2025-2040. This (L 32 15) was decanted 90 minutes before dinner but needed about 2.5 hours, as it was not fully open until the end of the evening. The wine has classic Barolo structure and the tannins still need a few years to soften. But what puts this wine into elite territory is its balance and complex aromatics, and a combination of subtlety and power that is very impressive. 2012 was a relatively modest vintage but this is a very impressive wine.
