(Renato Corino Barolo Arborina) #1; COLOR-dark; NOSE-little tight; a pretty cinnamon component (somewhat common in Barolo); little hints of roasted red pepper; & classic sour cherry; TASTE-far more elegant; REALLY impressed w/ the silkiness of this wine; this wine is good; great complexity; very dry; great length; huge explosion; little oregano/sage/basil on the mid-palate that goes into this gorgeous, silky, long, extracted, cherry sauce reduction sauce finish; but great back-end tannins & structure; can easily last 15-20 years in the cellar; I'm in love w/ the plum skin and the cranberry; if you want to experience a classic textbook Barolo, seek this out; AG-92; GV-92

The cork was rock solid and broke, with a fair effort to extract the remainder. I was put off a bit by a pungent nose and thin, slightly rust color. The wine was actually quite good, with complex character, cherry, spice and some licorice on finish.

Nice rich dark Cherry, smooth long finish. Great after short decant. Probably at or a bit past its prime, so will enjoy this more regularly.

Perfect drinking window for this wine, paired with pasta and prosciutto and butter sauce, worked very well.

Initially, this looked older than 10 years, which had me worried and initially it seemed a little thin. With a little time, it seemed to beef up a bit, which was a happy surprise. Deep red fruits, with very pronounced spice notes over a foundation of leather and tobacco. This was a very good wine, but medium body and average length on the finish kept this from being a real "wow" wine. However, because it wasn't overpowering, it was really versatile with a pretty wide array of food and was pretty perfectly paired with a pasta with pecorino & black pepper.
