Lots of sediment. Decanted and was tightly wound for almost two hours. While waiting we opened a bottle of 04 Massolino Vigna Rionda Barolo which was 🎶 singing right from the get go! Then came back to this 83 and it had definitely developed into a great bottle almost bigger in style than the Barolo who would have guessed 🤷♂️ — 2 years ago

This 16 year old Barolo is drinking wonderfully now. Elegant and rich, with nice complexity and mouthfeel.
Needed 3 hours to open up properly, so be patient.
Looks so gentle but is very powerful, with refined tannic structure.
Good by itself as a sipping wine, or with food.
100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged for 2 years in Slovenian oak barrels.
14% alcohol by volume.
92 points.

Purplish in color with a reddish hue.
Light to medium in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with red currants, red cherries, raspberries and spices.
Tangy finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very young Barbaresco from Piedmont. Fruity and fresh, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
Starting to show some complexity already. Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime.
A good food wine that will pair nicely with game meats.
100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged for 18 months in large Slavonian wood barrels.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
90 points.
$80. — a year ago
