Pio Cesare Barolo 2021

This is very powerful and structured, with aromas of black truffles, graphite and hints of dried thyme and cedar. Medium- to full-bodied and chewy yet polished. Hints of terra cotta and dark fruit. The finish goes on and on. March 2024 release. Best after 2028. Score – 96. (jamessuckling.com, Aug. 16, 2024)
