This was a lovely
Barolo...may have been the breathing out - was quite smooth and easy to drink...same fennel, chocolate and plum but way less smoky.

High ripeness create a plush style unlikely to evolve further, positively that is. Pretty balance, though.

Great showing almost 10yrs later. Great debth from an ok vintage, still a little young but showing all the singns of a stellar wine in another ten years. Barolo is the King and Bocchino's site and method is a perfect match. Can rival any great wine of the world.

Dramatic backlighting for a dramatic vintage. Opened cuz I read this was actually passed its prime, but this has a punch or two left in it. Cooler vintage, but there's a lot of deep, dark, gothy brooding going on. I do love Eugenio's wines, yup.

Dried and cooked cherries dance with Cardamom and cinnamon spice; tomato leaf follows leading cigar box, sweet tobacco and licorice.
