Barolo, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
A wonderful lush nose. Burgundy like with floral notes, soft red cherry, leather. Savory and lifted and delicious. Great

I brought this. Dark reddish tawny. Another obvious Italian nose. Notes of roses, anise, some tar and some tea. Young in the mouth. Big mouth feel, even tannic despite 4-5 hours of air. People were down on this wine but then it opened up in the last hour of the long evening to display everything you want in a Barolo. This needs another 5-10 years of age, and at least 8-10 hours of air before consumption at the current moment. 95+

Feb 19th, 2023Taken to Via Carota in the West Village. Decanted for 8 hours in the hotel room. Deep tawny color. Opaque. Amazing nose that screams old Nebbiolo. Notes of sweet red and black cherries,red rose petals, anise, old wooden desk, black soil and a hint of tar. Super rich in the mouth. Coats the palate. One of the best Barolos I’ve ever had. At peak yet still youthful. This can easily go for another 20 years. Bravo.

Still thinking back to the day I've had this insane beautiful Barolo. So amazing.
