I’m not certain why I went for this, but I did. Probably too eager because 2018 here is still way too young. Translucent red cherry color, pale around the edges. Dried rose petals, cherries, and leather compromise the nose. Quite rigid inside with some wood elements and vanilla. Tight and not ready.

Tame is the right word. This Barolo is moving out of its wild youth, but can still age some. Soft fruit and new leather, a little sage. Tannins are mellow, decanted for 2 hours. Paired with pork medallions in a basil cream sauce. Good pairing.

Strawberries, earth, and violets, smooth with decent depth and length.
