Formidable structure dominates this stern, mineral-driven Barolo. Tightly wound black fruit struggles against rigid tannins and cutting acidity, while tobacco, tar, and crushed herbs emerge slowly. The wine's austerity demands serious patience. Approach after 2029, with peak drinking through the 2030s.
