Some typical Barolo aromas, but a bit more fruit like cherry (Barbaresco style?). Found this to be still quite tightly closed. Tannic and not showing the fruit very well on the palate. Even after decanting for several hours, the wine still did not open up. Let's hope it improves with age.

Still dry and slightly tannic, but coming along nicely. This bottle still has time left.

Aromatic, marmalade, caramel, cedar and dried berry nose. Med-full bodied, gripping and spiced palate; long finish.
5/5

Heritage: Darker scarlet, a bit fruitier, more robust than Farina; Dark berries, more fruit forward. Everybody’s favorite.
