Serious stuff. Ripe and ready to go, this offers copious amounts of raspberry fruits and well judged barrel treatment. Tiny amounts of VA add a distinctive Barolo feeling. At peak; drink now.

This is quite a sniffer. Open right from the start. Savory spice and roses and peat. Wish I had a case stashed away!

Sour cherry and gamey meaty animal notes that tanslate to redcurrant and dried herbs on the palate.

Seems to have potential. Great nose but today the palate is not well knit.
