Smokey, asphalt, earth driven Nebbiolo. Assertive tannins. Needs some time to evolve but could unwind after a solid decant

Incredible elegant Barolo with an impressively kind price tag. Worth decanting. Floral and licorice nose with a cherry-filled palate.

Agree with others that it is a bit on the tannic side now so would give it a bit more time.

Great 2010, drinking beautifully. Clean, fresh minty notes on the nose, vibrant cherry and licorice on the palate. Long, focused, and sharp. Fantastic.

Undoubtedly a Barolo material, the tannic structure trails the acid structure, making it seem light. All the subtleties are there, in low intensity. No hint of early decline and still very alive and youthful. It gains volume and density after 24 hours and expresses the grandeur only the best Nebbiolo and Pinot Noir can achieve.
