So wonderful and majestic! Decanted and filtered to remove a bit of residue. No hint of being on a downward slope. Beautiful nose of sweet fruit and some spice. Rich red fruits and spices on the tongue. Great mouthfeel and medium to long aftertaste. Enjoy it now because the wait can be over now.

Decanted for 1.5 hrs. Dusty garnet color and medium viscosity. Serious aromatic action here. Ripe red strawberries, raspberries and cassis. Lilac, lavender, tar and all spice notes coming through. On the palate, this is an iron hand in a velvet glove. Confirming red fruits, flowers and all spice. Elegant and complex and a delicious long finish. Dry wine, medium plus acidity, medium plus tannins, medium plus alcohol, medium body. This is nicely peaking now.

Parmi les plus beaux Barolo que j'ai bu. Nez splendide de bois noble, d'épices, de rose, d'encens...En bouche c'est encore puissant, voire jeune. Les tanins sont fondus et veloutés. L'équilibre entre les composantes gustatives est parfait. Petite note balsamique. Un vin de méditation. Une grande bouteille!

At a fine new NYC restaurant. Shows fresh red/ garnet color, and with 30 minutes in the decanter, begins to display a hint of tar, cherry, leather, tea. But not the amber edge, deep, rich more expanded flavor profile for which one would hope in a fine vintage Barolo. Keep for another couple of years or decant for 2 hours. Won't ever be a top performer.

Excellent Barolo arrivé à maturité, encore en fruit, floral et long en bouche. Raffiné et assez puissant,
