Keith's Italian Wine Dinner (Osteria Langhe - Chicago IL): Open 7 hours, 2 in decanter. Mostly mature red cherry with dried floral notes, hints of licorice. Persistent with good length, good enough weight. At a very good place now, unlikely to develop more complexity

Quite tight and unyielding at first, showing a whiff of tar and some ironstone. Really breathes up beautifully, with red jube-like fruits and engaging florals. It is rich and heady through the mid-palate and finishes with plenty of muscle and very good persistence.

Piedmont theme: Incredibly fresh with a brilliant ruby colour. Would have guessed 2015 if not for the 2013 vintage cut-off. Light-footed and elegant, attractive strawberry red fruit but lacked the stuffing I expected of Monprivato.

Pretty nose full of fresh roses, bright red strawberry and cherry fruit, laced with some cherry liqueur. Chirpy, elegant and fine.. Some minerals and dusty tannins at the back. This had sort of an understated beauty to it which was quite lovely.

Großartig.
Jetzt voll im Trinkfenster. Besser wird er wohl nicht.
Samtig. Rund. Fein. Toller traditioneller Barolo.
