Grandes Dames tasting. 2016 Barolos. My5th, group 4th. Simple. Opens with air but still quiet. Bright cherry fruit. Simple.

Vanilla, fig, walnut on the nose and palette, balanced alcohol and acidity with quite smooth tannins (for a Barolo.) Not amazing but very good and quite enjoyable.

Decanted. Needs food for sure and still has plenty of acid to go another 10 years. SS

Shows how elegant and floral Barolo can be. First time tasting this producer and it shined.

I love my job/life. not bragging, just counting my blessings. in this case I count them in lamb chops and remarkable wine and the best staff I could ever imagine!
