Barolo Riserva

Beautiful. Very fine, complex, more rounded and balanced than all the others - yet strangely reserved, as if it's holding something back. Fruit is still here, flowers too. Balsamic, coffee, earth. The fruit is genuinely gorgeous - delicate, not dried out, still singing quietly beneath the tertiary layers. If the '58 glows and the '71 roars, the '67 hums. The most elegant wine in the vertical, and perhaps the most underrated.
