Community Tasting Note

Sunday, April 19, 2020 - Stood up for > 1 month and decanted. Medium ruby, darker than typical for nebbiolo of this age; aromatic, initially cognac-styled nose with high alcohol but that blows off after about 30 minutes, now with cacao, cedar, plum fruit, some florals and violet; palate is medium bodied, more robust than typical for Nebbiolo, tannins are medium-plus, acidity medium-plus, alcohol medium-plus, red fruits; finish is medium to medium-plus length. A more robust style of Barolo than I typically drink, though well made and enjoyable. I think this has complexity, but won't transform into anything profound even with age. Drink now or in the next few years. 90
2 hours decanted: it’s losing a bit of character and is more about the structure and balance now. Not a good development. 89-
