Solid Barolo, way better on day 2 with all the typical notes of rose petals, tar, red fruits like currants, cherry and pomegranate. Massive tannins still.

Still young, took some time to open up but lovely. Beautiful nose - red roses, tobacco, cherry.

Classic roses and tar with earthy notes. Took over an hour to smooth out, but when it did it was so very pleasant, leathery and cherry-laced. From magnum, drink up.

The nose was wonderfully perfumed, showing sweet cherry and strawberry with dusty spices, rosy floral tones, orange zest, hints of mint and underbrush. On the palate, I found feminine textures as juicy acidity added thrust with notes of dried strawberry, inner florals and moist earth tones filling the senses. Grippy tannin mounted with each sip, drying it's red berry fruits as they saturated the palate throughout the finish, along with lingering spice and red licorice which seemed to last for well over a minute.
I can only imagine how good this will be as it's textures fill out over time. For now it's incredibly pretty, refined and slightly understated.

Give it time to open up. Dried strawberries, floral, spearmint gum, moderate tannins.
