2003 Pio Cesare Barolo Ornato

This Magnum of Ornato was incredible. Beguiling and expressive nose. Vanilla, cedar, roses and cloves. Minerally, with a dense carpet of tannins and fresh lively fruit, long long long long finish. Incredible winemaking, could easily open in ten years

Tart sour cherries, heavenly meat locker, some exotic Allspice, vanilla and white pepper. Evolving and coughing up secrets with every sip

Dry dry dry! Puckering tannins with substantial acidity, so light and fresh, a brilliant wine to pursue with some thick, juicy steaks

Impressive showing for a 25 year old wine but no denying this peaked, maybe 2-5 years ago.

Love this

starts with powerful nutmeg and tobacco notes, some damp cedar, interesting but not complex.....Luscious fruit but medium bodied with deceptively long tannins, heavy oak. More "power" than elegance, despite the age and 2+ hours in the decanter
