A really nice Barolo but I preferred the 2000 Mascarello that I've had previously — 11 years ago

Like the ‘71 Mascarello a good cork and a high fill that is where the similarities end.
This was a stereotypical aged Barolo and I say that as a compliment. Beautiful aromas of cherries, leather ands dried leaves. This tasted very fresh due to the wonderful acid levels. Juicy cherries , mushrooms, tobacco and dried meats all fought to get the attention of my tastebuds. A finish that defied its age. Wish I had another bottle because I don’t think this one is going anywhere for years — 6 years ago

@Steve Pollack @Steve Pollack I’m going to say it was black.

Very likely a library release. Borgogno is well known for doing this and IIRC the code on the back label will indicate such. They basically decant the bottles to remove sediment and top off with same vintage before recorking. I drank a ‘61 about seven years ago and it tasted young.

@Jay Kline thanks for the info.
