Incredible bouquet but took a long time to open up and for the mineral and acid to mellow. Smooth and gentle when it finally did. Would only go for cellared bottles. β 6 days ago
Based on other reviews here I decided to open, decant and wait 2 hours. Great advice! This was electric after 2+ hours. Pungent, powerful and delicious! Rich deep dark color and strong earth and mature cherry notes. Still active and pacing in the glass. This was the best bottle of the β16 so far for me. Definitely in its enjoyment zone. β 14 days ago

Yet another from the recent Winestar cellar release purchase. A gift at $150. Everything that the 2016 had, without the roses turned up to eleven.

Holy smokes
3rd of the trio barolos served with truffle dinner
This wine was seriously tertiary. It was mistaken for a Madeira or sherry or port for its dessert like flavors and sweetness though it had no sugar
Very good wine to finish the meal and loved to dessert with
