Rusty amber color, moderate bricking, lots of sediment. Aromatic nose of sweet caramel, apple, wet leather, hints of eucalyptus. Medium-full bodied palate, some sweetness on the front, most of the fruit profile is gone other than some red apple. leather, acidity on the front turns into bitterness in the mid-palate. tannins have a dusty texture but are mouth-coating.
Bottle is in good condition (bought in La Morra) but as others have said this is drinkable but not great.

Orange hue to the color. Mintyness among the roses and saddle in the bouquet. Fine on the palate with some brown sugar sweetness and otherwise very leathery with a slight medicinal bite. Good acidity, fine tannins support the finish. Fully mature. Good drinking.

Outstanding. Very much alive: tannins well integrated , fruit very present. Roses, tar. Traditional old school Barolo
