Strawberry. A little bit of earth and some great structure.

Classic nose. Orange peel and dusty allspice. Silky texture. For $60 retail...a steal.

Light ruby color with a noticeable brick rim. Aromas and flavors of dried cherries and strawberries, dried rose petals, asphalt, strong coffee, orange zest, vanilla and leather. Very spicy and earthy on the medium-plus finish. Tannins have mellowed to a velvety softness. Relatively light bodied. May have just passed its peak. Clearly shows how aging can affect a wine.

great nose of saddle leather, cigar box, ground herbs, white pepper, spice, some maggi tones. Great elegant palate with fresh acidity finishing long. Nice mature Barolo...
