A little anniversary wine we had store - busted out and decanted for awhile and it was delicious. Smooth Barolo with some dry tannins. Served with lamb.

A good example of a Barolo, salvaged from the wreckage of Virgin Velocity scheme. Medium light, brown but not over. A very fine taste.

Good #barolo that’s made in an approachable, soft-tannin style. I want more layers of depth and some chewier tannins in my Barolo, though.

Tobacco, cedar, raspberry nose. Dark cherry, raspberry tobacco, spice box palette. Perfect tannins at 13yr age. WSJ wine club deliver... Good pick!

WSJ premium club wine. This is one that should cellar for years. I opened mine and it needed some time to breathe. Robust tobacco and spice, almost cinnamon. Dry palate and sophisticated tannins but not puckering or overdone. Deep ruby color.
