Transitioned from a brut to a prince within a few hours. Memorable.

1995 Giacomo Monfortino Nebbiolo Barolo. At dinner w McC. This wine was much more red fruit and bigger than the 1990 Barolo Mascarello. We all thought this wine was young and could use more time. Overall delicious though

plenty lively still, and exactly what Barolo should be.

Magnum. Took over an hour in a decanter to lose its tightness but then drank great, dry dark cherry. Had Another 20-40 years left

1995 vintage. Great Monfortino. But still very young. Come back in 15 years!

My first Monfortino. Gorgeous, but even at 18, I wouldn't let it vote just yet...
