1961 Oddero Barolo, pristine bottle with interesting neck tag. Gorgeous mature nose, dark cherries, brown sugar, leather, earth, charred wood. Silky palate, ripe sweet red fruits, dense mid palate, resolved tannins, perfect acidity. Excellent. #odderobarolo #oddero — 6 years ago
Evolving faster than one would hope. Nose was fantastic with med + intensity and clear notes of rose, truffle, crushed stones, ripe black and blue fruit, and an exotic zing. Firm tannins, low acid, and high abv lead to an off balance palate. Complexity lacked with all notes muted. Medium finish. I am a little puzzled and don't know if this wine will come together with age and extended decant or not...?

Cola and rose aromas, sweet tobacco and dried cherry shimmer with cilliate violet strands, and seared meat. Eucalyptus awash in tannins rakes the palate initially before softening to black and bing cherries, allspice, cinnamon and cedar. Clove puts the spice over the top in a food-worthy wine that checks every Barolo box and then some.
