Winery Review: Ethereal nose and aromas of withered roses fail to suppress a slight fragrance of underbrush, which makes it extremely well-balanced and rounded. Austere and impressive. With its excellent tannicity, it can have a very lengthy cellar life: 20/25 years. This Barolo reflects the most typical style of the wine's virtuosity and aristocracy.
My Review: The nose has hints of
cherry and black currant. I also get earthiness with leather and shoe polish. The
taste is quite harsh. It’s vinegary. This wine has turned which is incredibly
unfortunate. I’m including this entry because it is such a high quality wine
and deserves more but also as a lesson to myself to better my aging techniques.
I had held this bottle for about 4 years but didn’t properly climatize it. Well
you live and you learn.
