Ruby red in colour. Not giving much initially on the nose after decanting. Notes of menthol, light Cherry, and balsamic notes. Almost devoid of fruit but has a delicious savouriness with a skinnsy note on nose and palate. Fine dry, tarry and persistent tannins and remains an excellent Barbaresco travelling well at 10 years of age.

The Barolo Vursa (2011) gets the edge on the table for me. Very similar in style to Barolo, very well made, modern, not over worked at all. One of the best at this method in Barolo.
