  Medium ruby Earthy nose, mushrooms, forest floor , wet grass Cherry, raspberries, big bold flavor, smooth and luxurious black pepper, currant, hints of mint This is a complex wine with high acidity, well integrated yet firm tannins, dry and truly delightful.

  Festa dal Barolo 2019 Masterclass (The Pool, Manhattan): Leftovers form Festa dal Barolo gala dinner the preceding night.
  
  In magnum
  
  A brooding savory nose with iron, meat and dark fruits. Structured and with the ripeness of '11 held together beautifully. Full bodied and powerful. Long and impressive if not charming. This is not a warm and fuzzy wine, serious and youthfully firm. 95

  Expressive and quite floral with generous red cherry. Racy with bright acidity, medium bodied, not showing the vintage's heat. Very good.

  Too young, certainly. Decanted 30 minutes thereabouts. Some alcohol showing on the nose (the vintage is speaking), slowly leaves for a much more elegant wine with tar, red berries, herbs, tannin, classic barolo,m unmanipulated. Give this time.
