A Barolo for the yearners. Myself I had high expectations for this drop. Here's a small descriptor- the flavors are commending & perfectly respectable ,alas slightly cloying.

Dec 15th, 2025This wasn't up to snuff. Cork was in decent shape, juice not so much. Acidity way below what's needed in a decently aged neb. Bricking is overly prominent, affecting the tannins which have been almost wiped clean. I was hoping for more for this 2016 vintage. Maybe should've opened up a few years prior? Will check back tomorrow to see any improvements.
