New producer to me but very solid classic styled Barolo. A bit softer on structure but typical of the easy going '11s

トリュフのパスタに最高!

This was returned for ostensible corkage but showing beautifully. Dark cherry and tar with some slightly green tannins, but bold flavored and elegantly floral.

Have not had young Barolo in a while. This was exceptional. Beautiful perfume.

16.5+/20 (91+/100) Красивый аромат с нотами спелой вишни, кизила, зеленого чая, легкими цветочными и бальзамическими нотами. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, сухими танинами. Насыщенное во вкусе. Молодо с большим потенциалом. (06.04.2019) #vinnatur2019

Not surprisingly, as of 12/19, the 2015 vintage wasn’t ready yet.
