Garnet red with ruby highlights. The nose is ethereal and expansive with hints of minerals and balsamic notes accompanied by scents of rose, spices, red fruits an wax. The palate is tangy and pleasant, rich, very persistent and well supported by tannins.
Ideal with roasts, braised red meats, game and mature cheeses.

Blue flower, red-skinned berry and new leather aromas lead the way. The elegantly structured palate delivers Marasca cherry, nutmeg and tobacco alongside youthfully austere, fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. Drink 2024-2036.
Vinous

The 2016 Barolo Ciabot Berton 1961 offers up scents of sweet pipe tobacco, menthol, licorice, spice, game and incense. This is a potent, somber wine for La Morra, but there is good depth as well as complexity. Even so, I have to think a bit more polish might be achievable.
