This wine is incredible. Light, ruby red color. The nose just leaps out of the glass with red berries, earth, peet moss, autumnal leaves and tar. Smells exactly like some of the Giacosas I've had the good fortune to taste. It's light on its feet and dances across the palate effortlessly with amazing purity of fruit, silky texture, and gripping tannins. Finishes strong. This is one of the best young Barolos I've ever tasted and I can only wager a guess as to just how great this will be in another 10+ years. This is a very traditional Barolo, and I don't know how Barolo can get a whole lot better than this. A wine to buy by the case.
