The 2019 Barolo is powerful, burly and full of character. Although not especially refined, the straight Barolo has a ton of personality. Time in the glass brings out scents to tobacco, dried herbs, lavender, cedar and menthol. I would give this a good bit of air. There's a lot going on here. This is really quite impressive in its peer group, and beyond that, too. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, November 2023)

2019 vintage. Last tasted 10.18.23. Still mucho lean and mean but slightly more composed in 6 months. This will rock for the holidays but open and decant for 7-8 hours beforehand. 4.3.24.
