  Dinner 13th Jan 2024 (Catford): Dark red/brown. Aroma of oak, blackberry, varnish, smoke. More flowery aromas as the wine opened-up. Full, rich cherry and chocolate flavours. Elegant blackberry fruit. Each sip revealed more complexity. Decanted for an hour - might have been better for two hours. Superb.

  Well aged Barolo. Mouthfeel smooth and full. Layered dark flavor and tea. Two more left no hurry.

  Medium red, clear pink edges. Really nice Barolo nose, tar, earth, black cherry and tea. Delicious resolved black cherry flavours with a bit of soft tannins on the finish.
  
  Much better then expected. Held it's own with a 1990 Parusso Mariondino and a 1995 Paitin.

  This wine was a nice light red. There was a lot here to like but at times it seemed a bit thin. At other times it seemed very much like a well age Barolo. A mystery but very enjoyable.
