spicy and structured, this rich barolo opens with aromas that recall scorched earth, leather, clove, ground pepper and dried berry. the firm palate offers ripe black cherry, fleshy raspberry, licorice and tobacco that seamlessly support the hefty alcohol. despite its bold structure, it's almost weightless, thanks to fresh acidity and tightly packed but fine-grained tannins. drink 2019–2031.
