  醒酒12小时，回塞1小时，刚开瓶时香气很棒，随后一个小时后老酒特征变得明显，酒在中途状态起伏很大，一度让我觉得酒坏了，幸得高人指点，继续醒酒，到晚上重新进入开放的状态，即便如此，喝起来也感觉还有点紧，没到完全放开的巅峰状态，应该听前辈的，提前一天就可以开瓶。淡石榴红色，闻香有法桶带来的香草味，陈年的梅果香气，酱味，焦油和烟丝的气息，入口酸度高，单宁紧致，细沙颗粒，酒液很咸，矿物感强烈，红果混合着酱油，树丛和焦油的气息，还有些许榛子的氧化感，法桶带来的淡淡香草奶油味贯穿始终，伴随着梅果的味道收尾。酒体扎实，香气集中，充满力量，经典的新派Barolo味道。虽然经过了20年，依然强劲，已经进入适饮巅峰期，也可以继续陈年。

  Drank with a Friendsgiving meal. Opened up nicely after 30-45 minutes and filtered.

  Tasted blind. Drank after 1.5 hours of air in bottle.
  Appearance slight sediments, medium intensity, garnet colour. Legs.
  Nose is clean, medium intensity, with aromas of stony earth minerality, soy sauce, floral violets, dark red cherries. Developed.
  On the palate, dry, medium+ acidity, medium+ alcohol (14%), smooth fine high tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of sweet ripe red cherries, red plums, licorice, savoury earth, sweet spices. Long finish.
  Very good quality. Was guessing a 2004 Barolo from the Barolo commune itself.
  Spot on with the commune. This bottle tasted more evolved than the last bottle of it I tried earlier this year.

  Barolo Saturday late night at ES.
  Tasted blind. Poured into decanter and drank over 2 hours.
  Appearance is clear, medium intensity, ruby colour. Legs.
  Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of milky vanilla oak, red plums, red cherries, sweet spices, slight earth, slight floral roses. Developing.
  On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium+ alcohol (14%), grippy high tannins, full body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of sweet red plums, red cherries, sweet spices, licorice, slight vanilla oak. Long finish.
  Very good quality, considering the vintage. Not very deep or complex, but will provide enjoyable drinking pleasure as it develops over the next 5 years. Some touch of modern style oak here, but thankfully just enough for it to be tasteful.
  From Via Nuova cru in commune of Barolo. From their website: Spends 2 years in new French oak.
