A powerhouse Barolo, with initial flavors of cooked fruit, eycalyptus, resin and mint. Starts off forbiddingly closed, so make sure to give it lots of oxygen - I recommend decanting it twice (!) and you will be rewarded with a bold, mineral-rich, juicy, `traditional' Barolo with petrol, roasted coffee beans and cocoa notes . A fantastic bargain at this price!
