  Lost some color over the years. A quite alcoholic Barolo, but it carries a lot of flavor.
  On the nose you get some plum and berries. A little hint of oak.
  The structure is super fine and the acidity quite restrained, but overall a very nice mouthfeel. The tannins are still present, but not overwhelming.
  It tastes of fig and dried fruits. You get some sweet spices and a bit of stone/mineral character.
  Great paring with meet.

  Reasonable Barolo, that hits the middle of road. Has the balance of fruits and acid and the tannins are subdued making it approachable earlier. Drink now and can keep for 2-3 years as plenty of acid and fruits to keep.

  Trengte overraskende mye luft for å åpne seg. Nesten bedre neste morgen. Klassisk Barolo. Fin frukt og syre, lang utgang.

  Solid, everyday Barolo, not pricey and always a pleasure to crack this and just sip this with cut meats and cheeses ! Not a big or complex wine. Its sister wine - The Sarmassa Barolo is superb and much concentrated.

  Not sure what happened, but I didn't get much from this wine.
