This bottle was much better than I expected, considering that 1983 was not top of the bill in Piemonte and is already 26 years ago... In the nose notes of maggi, spices, red fruit. Very broad on the palate, very long finish. Complete wine, as ready as one can be. Excellent.

Dark and leathery; slightly attenuated on the palate but with good polish; seems a little more modern than you would expect for this period. A masculine style and a nice showing for an 83.

Pretty good effort considering the vintage but I wouldn't seek this one out again.
