Overripe peach, dried dark cherry, shaved dark chocolate on the nose. Palate doesn't live up to the nose. Tart cranberry/cheery on the palate.

Belated post from Mother’s Day dinner. This was in full splendor at 20 years old. It was ready and had many secondary notes intertwined with primary flavors of rose petals, leather, wood shavings, yes the tar was there but not as pronounced as I have found in younger Barolos from Conterno. A gem found in the cellar that I’m glad I didn’t wait another day to open.

Red fruit, fall leaves, sweet and not showing a lot of structure at first, though incredibly fine tannin comes out with air. It is very easy to drink.
