Way too young, but definitely a good wine. Drinking it now is just like experiencing a battle between mouth-drying tannin and mouth-watering acidity. This wine does not actually open up after 5 hours of aeration and 7 hours of decanting. Maybe another 10 years are needed.
Medium garnet. Nose is pear, rose, cherry, and leather. Medium body. Long finish with licorice and chocolate notes.

Pretty good from first pour. Better after an hour or so, but a bit tight and tannic and too grippy to really enjoy . Built. I’ll Wait 3-5yrs to retry, 95 pt potential.

Too young, somewhat closed - but great. Dry, a bit smokey, red berries, vertical, tannic, very classic - all the fixers, but leave this be for 5 years IMHO. #Ib

Really wonderful bouquet typical of Barolo, but this needs some more time to develop. A bit too tannic at this point. Robust and masculine
