2010 Silvio Grasso Barolo

Community Tasting Note

92 Points

Thursday, January 15, 2015 - drank from a 375ml. Opened at 2pm, decanted at 4pm and enjoyed ~ 2.5 hours later. Dark red color with nice legs in the glass. Beautiful nose - eucalyptus/menthol, sour cherry, dark cherry. On palate, medium+ body, high acidity & long finish with stout tannins (flavor profile similar to nose). Pretty modern Barolo and I was pretty amazed at how well this drank for only 5 years from the vintage. Probably going to shut down soon but drank very well tonight. 92-93 range. Will buy more. As prior taster noted, you are wasting your money if you don't decant for a few hours.
