The Bricco Boschis, a vineyard wide selection no doubt, was the simplest of the three, still fruity, but rather low in acid when compared to the other wines. High toned on the nose with classic limestone, mint, and herb notes. A great bottle with plenty of fruit, though it tapers off on the palate quite quickly. Obviously the least tannic of the trio.

Drinking beautifully, with a deep, tarry nose that had whiffs of chestnuts, old leather, and roses. Rich, sweetly fruited on the palate, with tannins mostly resolved and a lingering, spicy finish. Delightful and ready to go.

Barolo 1958, 1967, 1975, 1978, 1979, 1987 (Chez Dal Piaz): This was released in the same lot as the 79. Also very fresh but showing significantly more aromatic evolution than the 79 with a fine balanced blend of evolved tones of camphor and gunpowder adding contrast to the dark red fruits.in the mouth this offered great depth yet showed more youthfully than the nose implied with a powerfully, chewy texture and chunky tannins that could use some time to resolve. Again this late in the evening I am not perfectly equiped to delve into the detail of the wine but I am confident this is worthy of at least
