Great Barbaresco, very indicative of place. Paired with steak and Gorgonzola, roasted carrots with honey and balsamic and mashed potatoes.

Still tight but in adolescence this wine is classic as hell. All the red fruit tar and roses intact w high tannin still in a tight grip. Can age a long time.

This bottle was a bit thin and metallic and didn't really open up much over 5+ hours.

A little over extracted. Lots of plum, spice. Probably high amounts of new oak
