91-92 This was delicious and ready to go. Slow-o'd it 6 hours and no idea if that was right/wrong but it was great when drunk. Makes me think the '18 Monvigliero I had a couple weeks of ago - which I thought was shut down - was maybe an off bottle.

Decanted in the morning, consumed in the evening. Good concentration without being heavy, quite approachable despite the young age and slightly polished, modernist sheen. Sort of early drinking vintage. On the palate lovely rose petals, orange peel and black tea. Refreshing acidity and surprisingly civilized tannins, lengthy and attractive finish. A tasty entry level Barolo from an expensive top brass producer, I liked this quite a bit more than anticipated, most def. will improve with time though.

JG’s mainly Barolo 2018s (Terra Rossa, London N1): Open sensual nose evoking Chambolle Musigny. Strawberry and menthol notes. Lovely purity and quite a lot of earthy grip on the finish. Very good.

12 of 27 …. This wine continues to drink very well notwithstanding its youth.

Agree with other notes saying this is remarkably well for a young barolo. Bottle gone quickly. No overt tannin wall.
