grapefruit and some florality

opulent and packed tight with blackberry preserves

somewhat closed down at this stage from an aromatic perspective

as if it had been excessively fined and/or filtered

Give it 3-5 more years in bottle and drink it over the next twenty-five

Azelia, Barolo Vintage:2019 grapefruit and some floralityThe 2010 Barolo is a delicately aged Nebbiolo with fine aromas of pressed rose petal, spice, grilled herb and dark berry. There's a dusty or earthy quality as well with crushed stone and mineral. This wine stays true to the characteristics that define textbook Barolo. Silky tannins give way to bright acidity on the finish.
