  5 hour decant total including dinner time. Really started to open up around hour 4. This needs lots of air or more time to be approachable. Will leave my others for a few years more.

  Just a quick note. This is drinking really well right now. Opened up with a bit of VA that blew off quickly to reveal a really well integrated complex wine.
  
  Editing to add: still just medium on the finish, or would score higher
  
  Drink or Hold

  My 2nd of 4. Note upon opening: Brick/ruby. Earth on the nose. Cherries, concentrated, long. with tannic finish. (94-95). Decanted for one hour, back into bottle. This was notably tight, and has put on weight and is not as forthcoming as my first bottle consumed in 2021. My friends preferred the 2016 Produttori "Torre" Barbaresco. At present this requires more air or more tine,

  This is a very good Barolo that comes out strong after a 30 minute decant but begins to slowly lose its lustre over the next couple of hours. I am not sure this will age as wellas expected but time will tell.
