Barolo

Full

Cork

Compared to the Brunate bottling, this is reticent and stern on the nose, with fruit that's robust rather than perfumed, displaying ample cherry and raspberry aromas. It's full-bodied and mouthfilling, with firm tannins and ample spice, and it's evidently more structured than the other wines. Yet despite its youth it's not too grippy or aggressive, and there's elegance as well as power, with an alluring velvety texture. Fine underlying acidity gives persistence, and the balance is impeccable. Very long and beautifully harmonious.
