Very proper and correct Barolo, showing no mercy even being a 2006. Tons of anise, tar, tobacco, and slight truffle. Perfect balance in the mouth with s good finish. Tannins a bit soft, which I guess could be good or bad.

Juicy, but not messy. Modern but not overly so -- still playful. J-M says it's the Alessi of wine.

Classic tar and roses. Tannic, needs time. Stood up to giacosa red label barbaresco
