Deep brick colour. Fine nose with typical hints of liquorice, cherries, tar and slight floral high notes. Full-bodied, young in the mouth with good concentration of cherryish fruit. Some liquorice. Good acids and tannic end. Very good Barolo. In need of at least 5 more years of aging to gain complexity.
Can remind a bit of the acid-driven wines from Prunotto in the pre-90-era, when Beppe Colla was the winemaker here.
