Decent Barolo, it has kept nicely but would not think it will keep much longer. Ruby, dark colour still fruit but with hints of leaterher / tobacco. I enjoyed this one, better than the last, but I had decantered this for 2-3 hours before drinking, and that seems to have improved the wine.

Redish, purple colour with a brownish tint. Smells mature, a bit of sherry flavours (almonds?). Nice tannins, alcoholic and a bit of cherry taste. However, not as complex and full bodied as I would expect of an Baroloe of this age. Nice companion with the spaghetti dish we had, but altogether a bit disappointed.

Deep red color, mature color at the rim. Quite neutral on the nose, tells me that this is not a big Barolo. Smooth on the tounge, decent depth and aftertaste. OK wine - ready to drink now - but not a Barolo to talk loud about.

Duft: Moden nese med et visst Nebbiolopreg: noe skogbunn, noe overmodne plommer og en god del fat, litt i retning av skokrem. Smak: Moden også på smak. Overmoden, lett syltetøyaktig frukt, relativt mye fat og tretørrhet og en litt skjemmende bittertone i finishen. Drikkbar, men lite vellykket Barolo med mye sminke. At denne fikk 90 poeng av Wine Spectator for fire år siden er latterlig.

Mother's Day dinner with Sue. Better than I expected: mature nose with scent of dusty tannins. Some fruit, rich, fully mature.

Very good wine, tasted great with tender loin. Classic but not top Barolo.

Perfectly decent but not special barolo. Decanted 2+ hours, served with portobello mushrooms and lamb but still not really expressive or exciting.

Eh, nothing particularly special. Can't really recommend. Nothing distasteful, but not memorable.
