If I were king American steakhouses would not be allowed to pull fine Baroli before 10 years. Good thing I’m not, as this was scrumptious. 20 min decant and bright red flowers and tarry camphor dominated a Burg-like palate of bright red, cherry stem-tinged fruit. The finish was still a touch dry but this will resolve, unlike my aspirations to the throne!

Volume dialed up / menthol, dried fruit, depth, power / more drive

Very approachable even if only 8 years out. Nice mix of fruit and camphor. Great with a peppered filet. Solid Barolo and a good young one.

Unforgiving for a few hours like a taught sore back but relaxed into a beautiful mess of rose petals tar leather and cranberry worth the wait
