This is one of Italy's classic red wines from a first rate producer. It is a big, powerful wine that will really benefit from at least a day in a decanter before drinking. It has a pale, brick red colour with great 'legs' that indicates some age. The nose is ripe, still with a sweetness of fruit, hint of spices, strawberries backed with almonds: delicate and fine. The palate is lovely and fleshy with the dry leathery texture associated with Nebbiolo. It has the classic meaty, mushroomy characters with a hint of oak and a long finish. This wine still needs time to develop fully and is a great example of Barolo.
