A delicious, more modern-style Barolo. Nose has sweet, rich cherry fruit and a fair amount of vanilla bean, along with a little crushed stone. Nicely-balanced and intensely flavored, it’s got macerated and dried cherry fruit, a slight menthol note, and a slight resinous/tarry note. Great length, and the finish highlights a full whack of very fine-grained tannin. Acids are nicely focused.

Dark Mahogany with brown hues. Nose of smoke and tobacco. Hefty but soft tannins. Cherry, iodine, nice long finish. Made a meat sauce for it. Decanted for 3 hours. Almost no sediment.
