Agree with the comments- showing very well for its youth. At first, opened up with tangy tannins - almost like a Beaujolais. After an hour (not decanted, bottle only) subtle fruits came through with a hint of leather and tobacco. Still a new world Barolo, but with a nod to the old world. Nicely done - glad SW talked me into buying - will hold well for years.

Youthful and exuberant. Medium bodied, juicy red fruits (mostly cherry), and medium but relatively integrated tannins on the finish. Mild nose,

Some might consider this baby killing but it is crazy delicious - ripe fruit, florals, and grippy tannins. I don't know how I can cellar my other bottles. This is so good right now.
