Tasting notes

This was decanted into a Barolo-decanter 3 hours before dinner. Upon opening the bottle the wine was almost dead. It opened considerably during dinner. Orange-red colour. Nose shows red berries, leather. Some floral notes. Evolved Barolo in the mouth. Fruit is very sweet and shows quite leathery. Some floral notes and anise. Medium acids and a bit dusty finish with still some tannins. Good length. This was good more than great. Very mature now and needs immediate drinking.
