  Pretty Brunate from this great vintage.
  Bouquet is quite open with more red fruit characters, slight truffles and a little cigar box.
  For a 2016 quite developed and I would enjoy it over the next decade, since I don't think it will further develop.

  Early look. Long decant during the day. an aromatic and perfumed style of Barolo. Delicious even this young after a long airing. Floral on the palate with firm tannic structure. This will soften over time. Pretty impressive wine for a baby with a great future ahead. To be left alone for a few years...

  Captivating and delicious. Drinking well already but it is a very enticing upside for years to come. I wish I had a whole case of this because it will be interesting to check in every year or so.

  Intense perfume, dried cherries, roses, leather, raspberries. Tannins are chewy, acidity is balanced and fruit is matching.

  That Appealing La Morra Style - beautiful red brick, perfume and bright aromas (dark fruit, tobacco, licorice, leather). Approachable already now (as many 16), balanced tannic structure and acidity. Just lovely over two evenings.
