  Mörkt tegelfärgat men mycket genomskinligt. Tunna gardiner trots 14,5 procent.
  Hallon, smultron rosbukett, tjära, bacon, lite regnvått grus.
  Mycket kännbara tanniner, medelhög syra. Röda bär, blommig arom. Medellång eftersmak med markerad stjälkbeska.
  Doften roligare än smaken. Tarvar en matbit.

  Aged nicely, drink now, reduced tannins.

  A very good standard Barolo in modern style. Quite dark for beeing a 15 year old Barolo. Red with a light orange rim. Rosehip, more dark than red berries, plum and oak. Tannins are still present, but softening. Long, dry finnish.

  Lots of development over the last 6-1/2 years, but far from mature. Still a very formidable wine. Classic Barolo with pronounced aromas and flavors of fresh roses; black tar; dark, tart cherry; briary blackberry; cedar bark; black, loamy earth; leafy, fresh mint; and wood spice, all wrapped around a chewy, tannic and acidic core. Full bodied, high alcohol, and some still, unresolved oak. Huge, dry finish. Requires both decanting and hearty food. This should easily cellar for at least another five plus years. Very good.

  Very good for an "entry-level" Barolo. Big, tarry nose with sandalwood and plum. Mouth-filling and tannic. Some tangy blackberry adds a little spark to what otherwise is a bruiser. Shows both the mean side and the pretty side of Barolo.
