Just a lovely, harmonious Barolo. Concentrated without being heavy. The nose is not powerful, but complex and beautiful. There were some soft tannins to begin with, which resolved over the course of the evening. This certainly has some years to go, but is fully ready to drink. Excellent quality.

This 16 year old Barolo is drinking very nicely now, but still so young.
Very dry on the palate with red fruits, earth, wood, spices, peppercorn, chocolates, tobacco, coffee, earth, wet leaves and herbs.
Elegant and robust.
Showing mild complexity and will continue to age nicely in the 15 years.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$130.

Not at its very top, kind of one-dimensional, and not (yet) the amazing flavores aged barolo can bring to the table

Nice wine but needs more cellar time.

disappointing compared with expectations.
A bit flappy and not the precision normally seen.
