Ruby in color with medium intensity and a wide reddish rim.
Earthy nose and medium bodied with medium plus acidity.
Very dry on the palate and complex.
Showing red cherries, raspberries, tobacco leaf, earth, light oak, mildew, light green vegetables, herbs, forest floor, black pepper and black tea.
Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This 13 year old Barolo is still drinking nicely, but will not get much better from this point on. Soft and elegant, but lost a lot of the fruits by now.
Not fully balanced at this point, but easy drinking and better with food.
