Nice color, nose, and mouth feel. We all got leather notes. Cherries and vanilla were also prominent for me. Really good tartness. Overall, a lovely and unassuming Barolo.

1990 vintage. Aromas of tar and dark plums. Hint of tobacco. Sweetness of an old Barolo. Lovely vineyard. Now owned by Contermo. Tasted 2015 barrel sample from him. Will be exceptional.

Really solid Barolo. Drinks well with little decanting.
