Perhaps not ready as a quality Barolo at only 10 years old but as Luciano passed away earlier this year it is an opportunity to toast a seminal figure in Barolo. Aromas of red and black fruits along with iron, plum skins, with touches of mint, cherry and tar. A powerful red finishing with fine powdery dry tannins. Drink the remaining 2 bottles in the rest of this decade.

Perfect with red sauce pasta. Integrated oak notes, terrific Nebbiolo cherry and anise notes. Day 2: oak is more noticeable, a bit too much for me.

Very pure, ripe, lush. Plums, cherry, violets, mint. This is slightly confected but very fun. More super-Tuscan than Barolo.
