Not so great year but a super wine. Let it open in the glas and you will be rewarded by a very elegant Barolo. Flowery, leathery goodness. Drinks beautifully now, I would not wait on this one.

From the moment it is poured, the 1978 is fabulous. The color alone is so vibrant. Such a classic mix of tar, dried cherry, herbs and licorice. Not the 1971, but so delicious and deeply satisfying...😊😍🤩💥😱
