Fabulous bottle of aged Barolo. Smoky aromas, mixed with dark slightly stewed fruit. On the palate, great blend of fruit and leather/smoke. Very robust and full with a long finish.

An amazing bottle. Best PC wine I've had. Cork was fully saturated but solid. Nose was amazing--classic old Nebbiolo with loads of leather, tar, dark fruit, just a bit of funk. Wonderful mouthful, dense, well-structured, sweet fruit across the middle and a good finish. Color was deep plum, with no noticeable bricking. Really a fabulous bottle. Bravo.

A bit funky on the nose at pouring with no decanting that dissipated after some time in the glass. Cork came out nicely. Deep and intense color with some bricking around the edges as expected.
Tasted much better than the nose would imply. Some raisin / pruning, but over all nice balance of tannins, acidity and fruit - very pleasantly surprised. Shared over dinner and enjoyed by all.

Showing very well. Garnet ruby with some bricking, lovely old Nebbiolo nose, lots of tobacco leaf and olive smoke in the mouth, with well-balanced acid and a good finish.
