Estimate
Rich, deep and explosive on the palate, with stunning aromatic presence and overall intensity...remarkably vivid. Beams of supporting tannin give the wine its energy and persistence. Wild cherry, plum, mocha, dried flowers and lavender are some of the many nuances that take shape as this superb Barolo continues to show off its remarkable complexity and personality.
Violets and decayed, autumnal leafy aromas with light red and blue fruits. The palate has a smooth, easy and juicy feel. Plenty of acidity delivering a bright, vibrant finish.
Great lift and concentration for this vintage... Hint of coffee bean too. Supple cherry fruit and firm, bitter/sweet tannins that build up on the finish.
