Lovely middle of the road barolo. Clear, rust colored. Huge nose: braised short rib, baking spices, the traditional tar. The palate had lost most of it grip and was initially unremarkable. It came together after a few hours. The wine started to fall apart the second day.

Decanted 3 hours. Mute nose. Dark, broad, smooth palate. Imprecise and one note.

Too sweet. Too modern. Too much.
