Black cherries, sun dried tomatoes, crushed roses, eucalyptus, dried thyme, cigar box, graphite, iron, balsámico. Sharp acid/rough velvet tannin balance, full bodied, juicy texture, peppery-earthy finish. Solid upon opening, evolved aromatically in glass. Classic Barolo.

Left it in the decanter over night. Got smoother, with more refined tannin an acidity, but slightly more gritty. This won't be a knock out in a 5 more years, but it'll be closer.

Long finish, light fruit on the nose before it opens up. Finds its way to some Carmel and dark fruits.
