This dry barolo has deep ruby colour but paler rim. On nose it has medium intensity aromas of black plum, caramel, dates, black cherry and hazelnut. Medium acidity and alcohol, medium bodied with fine grained tannin. On palate it gives medium flavours of black plum, cherry, vegetal, road tar type earthiness and trace of rancio notes. Longer than medium length with dried plum finish (85) Signs of tiredness and oxidized but keep good fruit and character

大吉利是，支酒未死，不過唔會有好耐。酒難得仍有一些果感，品種表現出色，不論香氣或酒味也是一枝過了適飲期的酒，餘韻仍是唔錯，老酒感十足，但我覺得老過頭。
