A slightly hazy evening prevents a proper analysis. But this was a truly majestic bottle of Barolo. Aged, complex, lovely mushroom tertiary flavours complementing the fruit and herbs. Everything in balance, just brilliant.

Reviewing 2009 Barolo (2nd Event) (Mario's House - Madrid): Wine obtained from five hectares located in La Morra. Although I prefer it on the palate, I liked its refined aromas of strawberries in yogurt and cherry pie. Delicious on the palate with flavors of candied cherries (fruits on dark chocolate), milk chocolate, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ... all wrapped in silk. A barolo of great delicacy, almost a Barbaresco.
Vino obtenido de cinco hectáreas situadas en la Morra. Aunque lo prefiero al paladar, me gustaron sus refinados aromas a fresas en yoghurt y a pastel de cerezas. Delicioso en boca con sabores a cerezas confitadas (frutas de Aragón), chocolate con leche, canela, clavo, nuez moscada, ... todo envuelto en seda. Un barolo de una gran delicadeza, casi un Barbaresco.

Lovely classical Barolo. In contrast to some Comments I found it neither overly tannic nor stewed. Well integrated tannins, good fruit a little cherry, some (pleasant) earthy mushroom aromas.

Unbelievably tannic, not very hopeful for this in the cellar.
