Villero di Castiglione Falletto Barolo Nebbiolo

This wine is old enough to drink itself. And it should, because it's fucking awesome. On it's last revolution, but holding strong. Hard to put into words the specialness of tonight. A woman I poured it for said "I know what happened in the 1930s." She turned out to be from the 1910s. I told her "Barolo speaks directly to my brain."

I think this wine has healing powers. Truly. Like drinking from a spring.

Yummy this was WOTN

This felt like looking up a mountain that ends above the clouds. Could not scale this wine tonight, but tomorrow...

Nice clean fruit, delicious juicy finish

Beautiful aromatics showing sweet red berry, savory spices, cedar, balsamic, orange peel, rose petal & tobacco

Excellent bottle though noticeably shy of the riserva he makes. In a great place in terms of age.

This bottle was outstanding. Opened with a rusty hue but 4 hours in the decanter and the color came back ruby red and the classic Nebbiolo notes were abounding. Dare I say it was even fresh at times. This ethereal wine has more years ahead. But it was outstanding tonight. An absolute stunner.

Giacosa. Whoah. Bottle no. 001. Am still thinking about/pining for this absolute beauty.

Anniversary dinner- wine was brilliant and my wife looking beautiful. Tar and roses on volume eleven. Pure joy in a glass.
