Decanted 3 hours before drinking. Even at the onset had lovely noses. Improved with air. Leather, tar, rose petals. Long and integrated. Great tertiary flavors

Q1 - 2018 Tasting - Aged Barolo Theme (NY, NY): 7 of 17 wines tasted double blind. The color was very pale (so clearly quite old), but the nose was just soaking wet cardboard left for weeks in grandma's basement smell - could not get it past the nose to taste. Very corked. - sadly - 0*

Aged Barolo (aka Q1 wine club) (The Apt): Wine #7: Very much in the older, funky, barnyard, form. Some leather. It's an old school type of wine. There was something at the end that I found a bit interesting, but I think wine #8 overshadowed. (2 pennies)

Bring a Great Nebbiolo (Chez Goldberg, Greenwich Village, NYC): [Double-decanted around 5pm.] Nasty, spoiled nose. No better on in the mouth.

Such a wild amazing smell. Like some sort of herb , veggies lawn smell, with barolo. Palate is harmonious and all there. Long and fresh.
