Very round and smooth. Especially the tannins. Excellent balance. Air helps to open up and then complexity onfolds of licorice, spices and flowers. Time to drink.

I guessed right bank, with its Cherry notes, red fruits, but felt herbaceous and green too. Tannins not perfectly rounded. When told its a Italian, I thought Super Tuscan!
Somehow I was only correct with the vintage, 2010, but alas that was about it... this one is a not so typical Barolo!
Thanks to Doc SKT for his de rigueur pour in plain Livita bottles, it was a fun night with my partner in crime deciphering 3 Italians. We only got the BdM right, mixing up the Barolo x Super Tuscan!

Past it's prime, but still delicious and passable. The fruit is declining and leaving a fragile structure dominated by a metallic tone and a light whiff of sous bois. Drink up!

Nez discret, nez fruit rouge un peu confituré. Belle aciditè, rond, bien équilibré. Ampleur et longueur moyennes
