This was singing and mind blowing. This is what I would describe as a nearly perfect traditional barolo. mind

lots of red fruits, already accessible.
this wine has an overwhelmingly depth and sniper-precision that you can lose yourself in the glass. compared to the big bordeaux this has less "horizontal" layers (different aromas) but has a LOT more "vertical" complexity (depth). philosophical wine. cant stop sniff and drink it and enjoy the endless aftermusic. the fist in a velvety glove that punches you in the face. driven by a high acidity. a bit of spice. but over all very, very rustical and pure wine. reduced to the minimum, but the minimum is more than enough. no make-up, no wood, no bullshit. this is what winemaking is all about.

Too bad that the market is going crazy about these wines (understandably). But still worth every penny.
