A preview of the 2010 Monfortino Barolo out of cask. This wine is going to be fantastic. The layers of aromatics are already so precise and well-defined and the tannins are incredibly fine and are in great balance with the acidity.

Second time with this unicorn. Even better than before. Saw it on wine list in Rome and had to pull the trigger (even though it’s about 30 years too soon).

Had to do it. Reminds me of the ‘08 but a bit bigger and slightly more austere.
