Spectacular, but still a baby. Thank goodness I have another bottle tucked away. #vietti

I bought a case of this delicious Barolo a while ago and am delighted every time I open a bottle. Texturally this is a wonderfully attractive wine. Both ripe and floral, it lingers powerfully and yet with lightness. One of two Vietti wines enjoyed at Antique Garage's original location is Soho (having enjoyed some haloumi the week prior at the new location, I was back for more).

Beautiful floral nose bright with firm tannins and great structure.

Took a while to open up, but showed classic cherry and Rose aromatics. Palate is well balanced for how young this bottle is. Always consistent bottling.
