This needed a good 90 minutes to really open up and shine. Roses, tar and a hint of cherry on the nose. Spice, dark cherry or black raspberries, leather and earth . Great mouthfeel and very long finish. Left about a glass and a half overnight to finish the next day and it became even better with the tannins becoming more pronounced, in a good way, and the flavors becoming more pronounced and deep. Even longer finish. This is just entering what should be a long bueatiful drinking window. Really nice barolo. 95+

Lovely complex nose. Palate has significant acid. Bodes well for future, 94-95 range in 10-20 years

This was terrific. Tasted about a decade older than the age printed on the bottle—in a very nice spot! Drank after about 90 minutes of air.

Really nice after a long decant, with notes of licorice, tobacco, and cedar, with nice acidity.
