Tasting notes

Deep brown-red colour. Red core, but very browning rim. Cherries on the nose, lightly leathery edge and some floral high-notes. Mature and acidic Barolo in the mouth with low concentration. Very little fruit here, probably from the beginning as this does not seem that faded. Leathery hints. Some cherries. Not much nebbioloish fruit. High acidity in the taste and little tannins in the back. Seems old and thin in the making. Simple Barolo with low concentration and little structure for this grape. Evolved quite nicely though. Drink now.
