2019 Vietti Barolo Ravera PnP, later decanted for 1 hr Nose of strawberries and violets, with hints of liquorice and plums Medium-bodied, with a core of plums and tobacco Very grippy tannins Long, acidic finish Needs loads more time, it’s a baby
2000 Château Latour Decanted for 1.5 hrs Nose of leather and cassis, with hints of tobacco, graphite and cedar Medium-bodied, with a core of cassis and oak Grippy tannins even after a hr of decant Extremely long, vanilla-like, floral finish. Finish just kept going and going

Vietti is amazing!
Understanding-Fair
Weird combo, but I like it

Excellent pair! Although I have a preference for la Spinetta (especially the Barbaresco).
