Beautifully showing age, brown rim already, and on the lighter side for a Barolo. Elegant, with cherry, rose, tar, and pleasantly chewy tannins that are integrated. Super match for short ribs, and nice to sip alone. Very good value

Not bad. Probably not worth what I paid for it.

Needs a day to breathe. Lots of sediment. Not very complex, but a decent wine. One note

Decant. Better with food. Not super complex but earth-driven and delicious. Bought at Acker-Merrill.

More acidic than I anticipated. But medium and great for pasta.
