  Drank this beauty over two nights. It was fairly tight on night one with a simple pop and pour. So, I saved the second half of the bottle for the next night and it was beautiful. Delicious and perfumed fruit that made this absolutely irresistible.

  I refer in general to my tasting note from 5 February 2022. Now, there is tobacco in addition. The wine is in a very beautiful stage because there are first tertiary notes but the fruit is still pretty present. This time there was no decanting necessary. Glass I used: Riedel Veritas New World Pinot Noir

  Early stages of maturity. It is floral, with red fruit, and tannins that are softening. Seamless, and kept improving with air.

  2012 Barolo / Barbaresco (Terra Rossa N1): On the nose light lifted tar, furniture polish, and dark plum.
  Deep and rich on the palate with dark fruit and coffee.
  Tannins still a bit too spiky but a bit more approachable than others in the flight. Some upside here

  2012 Barolo/Barbaresco (Terra Rossa): Deep, sensual and complex nose, with violets, seaweed, fenugreek and strawberry boiled sweets all intoxicatingly intermingled. More straightforward and fruity on the palate, with juicy blueberry, some dried fruit and a relatively lush feel. This wine seemed to me to the most balanced and aromatic tonight, neither austere nor blocky, but it was quite expensive and I won't seek out another bottle.
