Took a little time to introduce itself but once it did, it was soft and rich with grip. Tar, red fruits, plums, prunes. Tasty.

1995 Barolo. Everything you'd want. Layer after layer of tar, red flowers, cherries and plums, anise, red licorice, more tar, and silent killer tannins!

Pleasing to drink and very balanced but not what I expected. The tannins are weaker than the fruit and it doesn't wow on the nose. Nothing wrong with it but as the saying goes "I've had better"

Really beginning to blossom and drink beautifully - impressive and suave, with great mid-palate depth; should have many years of drinking ahead of it.
