A somber nose half-heartedly offers up notes of forest floor

but I suspect that it will recover with age

Good stuff and I like the harmony

Give this a long spell in a decanter if you plan to uncork a bottle anytime soon

Gianni Gagliardo, Barolo Preve other_regions_australia A somber nose half-heartedly offersGianni Gagliardo's 2010 Barolo Preve has come together quite nicely since I tasted it a few months ago. The tannins have begun to soften, allowing the dark fruit to come through with greater precision and nuance. Cloves, mocha, spices and black cherries wrap around the brooding, potent finish in a virile Barolo to drink over the next decade or so. Antonio Galloni
