Color of light red mixed with black tea and brown sugar. Dark yellow on the rim. A bit hazy. Nose of condensed dried cherry, black pepper, a bit balsamic vinegar, salty bacons, and some wet earthy note. Taste of nice black tea flavor, mix of cherry and strawberry note, intense oak and cedar wood, firm tannins, balsamic acid, tobacco leaf, and some spice note like clove. The taste is a mirage of different nice and saturated Barolo signatures and surpass the nose for sure. Aftertaste is lingering flavors of aforementioned flavors and still powerful tannins. Overall very good Barolo to enjoy now or shelf for several more years to come. — 9 years ago
