2000 vintage. Pleasant, but lacks depth and complexity.

Lots of tannins still. Needed a while to open up more earth and leather than fruit but once it opened up it was more balanced.

Initially tight and closed in but an hour of air it exploded into a luscious fruit forward but delicate classic Barolo. Absolutely exquisite.

Amazing generous deeply rich Bordeaux like flavors of wood and cassis followed by juicy dark red fruit. Still many years of pleasure before it.

Was beautiful at open but couldn't keep up with the Clerico or the Sandrone. Typical nose, impressively knit together. You can taste the age, tinge of pruni-ness that adds not detracts. Drink up.
