Note di degustazione
Mocha, smoke, tobacco, menthol, cooked fruit and cloves meld together in Alessandria's 2003 Barolo. Brooding to the core, the 2003 is especially dark and implosive. The aromas are already fairly advanced. I would suggest drinking any remaining bottles sooner rather than later. The heat of the vintage is quite apparent in the slightly wilted, forward flavors.

Good full, healthy red. Exotic red berry liqueur and marzipan on the nose, with a hint of nutty surmaturite Fat, broad and sweet, with rather lush flavors of dried fruits, marzipan, menthol and woodsy underbrush. Nicely concentrated and long, but hugely tannic.
The 2003 Barolo, typically one of the region's best normale bottlings, is once again excellent. It is a floral, perfumed Barolo with attractive, ripe red fruit and a weightier personality than is normally the case. Delicate in its own way, it offers notable balance between its ripeness and structural components, with a touch of alcoholic warmth on the finish.
