Presented double-blind at Tasting Group. The wine pours a garnet color with a slightly watery rim and a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with notes staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of Morello cherry, tar, roses, dried herbs, licorice, exotic spices and gravelly earth. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. The alcohol is medium+. Initial conclusions: this could be Nebbiolo, Sangiovese, Grenache or Pinot Noir. However, the color, transparency and tannins can’t lead me to any other place than Italy and this simply has too many of the calling cards for Nebbiolo. When considering the quality of the fruit and power of the wine, I think this is Barolo from a recent, warm but challenging vintage. My call is Nebbiolo, from Italy, from Piemonte, from Barolo, 2017 from a mostly traditional producer. “Whoop! There it is!” I think the 2017’s (in general) are beginning to show pretty well…following a somewhat similar path to the 2015’s in some respects. A solid annata from the other Oddero. Drink now and through 2037. — 8 days ago

Heavily tannic but well integrated. Cherry, non French oak, and herbal funk. Great Barolo. — 6 years ago

Consistent notes, if not better after a two-hour decant. A house Barolo?? — 2 months ago
