Wednesday, March 7, 2018 - 2008 Barolo&Barbaresco Check-in (Osteria Langhe, Chicago IL): Nose: There was a bit of a funk at first, but it seemed more like a bit of reduction with air along with some toasty oak, red cherries, raspberries, violets, roses, tar, and some roasted herbs.

Taste: Medium/full bodied with high acidity and high tannins. The tannins are on the youthful, but silky side with the acidity having real punch to it. The feel is well balanced and shows a slight sleekness with red cherries, raspberries, violets, tar, and roasted herbs.

Overall: This is certainly on the youthful side, but, it starts to really open up with air. This shows off a nuanced-quality, but with a slight sleekness too.
