Leather. Smoke. Tobacco.
All of the things that I love about a wine.
However! (And it’s a big however)… this needs another 5 years.
It could only be one thing.

Very typical barolo. Nice tannins. Rich ruby color. Nice acidity. Enjoyed it with a classic Piedmont eggy pasta dish made with tagliolini pasta made with lemon zest, course ground black pepper and parm cheese. It was yummy and the wine was the X factor

Solid but narrow Barolo. Color is muted. You can see the thinness in the glass. The fruit is good if a bit sweet on the front end and a bit puckering on the back end. Likable but not memorable.

Had an ‘09 left in cellar, last time I had this classic Barolo was 4years ago and it needed lots of decanting, produced from of 100% Nebbiolo grapes. Medium Ruby with a bouquet of berry fruit aromas, mostly cherries, with earthy herbs. Aged in large oak cask for 2 years, on the palate complex flavors with cherries, stewed plums, blueberries, leather, earthy herbs and a hints of smoke and spice. Crisp acidity with tannins, still tight, gave the wine elegance & structure on the long finish. This Barolo still has room to age! Nice!

Very good, floral, earthy, light spice. Tons of tannin and acid.
