Too young. High toned and lots of concord grape and and other dark fruits in body. Only began to show tobacco and shed the initial fruits after a few hours. Will be delicious soon.

Still a baby but starting to show some mature notes. Classic velvet glove with an iron fist #Barolo. Tar, cherry, red currants with some savory herbs, pencil shavings, and a touch of menthol. Loads of acidity and persistence on the finish that tapers off slowly to an elegantly long but powerful finish. #cavalotto #nebbiolo

Wonderful well aged Barolo. Lots of tar and rose petals. Great acidity and not too much oak. Thanks Spencer for bringing this!
