At least it was better than the Troglia bottling from the same vintage.

I've had a good bottle of '73 Troglia before. This wasn't one of them sadly.

Phenomenal. Basta. That's it. Nothing else to say. Yes, the 1990 Otin Fiorin is a bit sweeter, but the straight 1990 Barolo is insanely beautiful.

What a gorgeous multilayered bouquet. The '71 seems to be more open with each tilt of the glass. On the palate, it lacks some follow-through, but you can love this wine on its nose alone.
