Coffee in the nose, hint of raspberries, tannic, needs to be decanted, went well with prosciutto

Really excellent Barolo that stands up and says hello but isn’t so big it overpowers after one glass. Vintage 2013, ~50$

Gorgeous nose of huckleberries, red currants, sweet bbq spice, chalky minerals, dried orange, and exotic florals. The orange and spice notes carry onto the palate with some clove, crushed red currant, and violets. The orange and mineral notes are oddly reminiscent of Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire. Needs lots of bottle age. Not as concentrated as the Conca that Renato Ratti produces, but still very good.
