Taken to Selby's in Redwood City. Tawny color, with a deep reddish center and clear rims. Almost opaque. Awesome aged Barolo nose. Notes of a cup of dark red fruit, tea, rose petals, anise, mocha and some balsamic thing. Great balance of the remaining fruit with softened tannins. In a great spot for drinking.

Tasted blind. Ripe fruit that has faded but still supported by its considerable structure. Aging well. Nothing better than mature Barolo.

And to think that people used to tell me that 1990 was too ripe of a vintage to mature gracefully. This mature, dark beauty was luxurious on the nose and palate with earth tones balancing it's rich fruits.
