Big structure, brooding powerhouse of a Barolo. Smoke, tar, leather. Dense and rich tannins.

Rasins and dried fig, massive fruit, balsamic, hoisin, porcini powder, damp earth. Crazy how much density and concentration it has. Rich and brooding for Nebbiolo yet still elegant and velvet texture

Massive fruit, huge tannin structure even with 2 hours being open. Brought by Ralph. A great alternative to all the Cali wines brought by all. Plum and dark fruits, chewy tannins. But owe boy what a experience. CB 98 all the way. Needs another 5-7 years in age to really mature.

Modern indeed, lots of oak but pretty well integrated. Plenty of fine and firm tannin and acidity. The Barolo Vursa gets the edge on the table for me (over Barbara score 2012). Very similar in style to Barolo, very well made, modern, not over worked at all. One of the best at this method in Barolo.
