Served blind. Loved it and yet another bottle proving that Paola Rinaldi nailed the vintage. Not for the long haul but already beautiful.

2013. Immediate and delicious. A lot of fun right now with a mid term life ahead. Delicious bright fruit. Well balanced. Not too ripe. Tannins are there but soft. Great drinking

Somewhat aggressive tannins on the finish as its fruit does not really fight back. Classic style. Definitely not a beginner’s kind of Barolo, but classy and elegant.

Pales compared to 2010 and 2013, but still damn hard to resist.

1964. Made me forget time. Fresh. Like drinking from a spring both from only that place and from the empyrean.

Smells like a fine Italian leather shoe - cherry, strawberry and cedar. PNP - good tannins but not overpowering - should develop nicely in the glass with some Turkey and sides.
