Great value Barolo from a fantastic vintage. 2013 had the perfect conditions and was considered 5 stars.
I think it has all of the main Barolo characteristics, acidity, tannins, full body, complexity, tar and well balance. What is different in this one was the copper color (which for a 2013 vintage is not expected) and it is more fruity than the average Barolos. Pretty pleasent in mouth and gets better after 45 mins to an hour. Enjoy this beauty :)

Nov 2nd, 2019Medium tannins, tastes of dark fruit and a little char (tobacco?). Color is more brown or bronze than expected. Delicious and worked surprisingly well with paella.
