Super tannic. Needed time to unwind. Could identify tobacco, tar, dark chocolate.

A bit light for a Barolo and could probably have used another 7-10 years but it's drinking nicely. Lovely floral nose with leather, toast and aromatics on the palate. Slight hint of spice.

Excellent base #Barolo from Massolino. Very accessible, nice nose, good frut intensity and depth. Dark cherries, plum, herbs and fine tannins. Real joy to drink already and should not require much cellaring to be at best.
