Dark ruby red color. Very rich aromas of wild berry, plum and mushroom turning to grilled meat. Full-bodied, with supervelvety tannins and wonderful ripe fruit on the palate that gives you a strawberry, cherry and vanilla aftertaste. Long and complex. Youthful. Hard not to drink now.--1997 Italian blind retrospective. Best from 2009 through 2019. 40 cases made.??–JS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
