Wow. This one is showing everything it's got! Shows like a very balanced and well refined Barolo. Really unsure as to how many years this one spends in barrel, but I would imagine it is somewhere between two and three years. The medicinal, herbal, and yet youthful raspberry and black cherry fruits on this wine are incredible. This makes anything you enjoy it with much better. All of a sudden, tuna salad became caviar! Finishes with a minty type of character, with tannins for the most part resolved. 11 years post vintage, and probably has another 10 or 15 years to go with about an hour of air.
