First Giacosa that seemed like it didn't want to last for the ages. A bit tired but as for Barolo that's ok. All the classic markers were there while morphing into wet leaves.

Opened 1 hour prior to tasting. Beautiful mature Barolo. Looks like red burgundy. Sappy, resiny aromatics with some herbal notes. Lovely balance here. Long finish. Delicious and complete. Enjoyed with Porcini Risotto.
