Description
This 1994 Barolo has developed remarkable elegance and complexity with age. The bouquet is rich and nuanced, offering aromas of dried cherry, rose petal, tar, leather, and hints of truffle, tobacco, and spice. On the palate it is full-bodied yet refined, with softened, silky tannins, balanced acidity, and flavours of dried red fruit, cedar, earthy mushroom, and subtle cocoa. The finish is long, savoury, and persistent, reflecting the classic aged Barolo character.
Serve at 17–18 °C (63–65 °F) after decanting for 30–45 minutes to allow the bouquet to fully open. Pairs excellently with braised or roasted red meats, game, mushroom risotto, and aged hard cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano or Castelmagno. Traditional Piedmontese dishes like tajarin with truffle or brasato al Barolo are also ideal companions.
