Giribaldi Barolo 2010 3L Double Magnum

This magnificently evolved, collector-level Barolo from the legendary 2010 vintage opens with an aristocratic and intensely tertiary bouquet of dried black cherries, stewed plums, and figs, beautifully layered with sophisticated notes of black truffle, saddle leather, tar, and dried autumn leaves. On the full-bodied palate, it showcases an incredible muscular depth and majestic architecture. A rich core of savory dark fruits is seamlessly supported by fully integrated, fine-grained velvety tannins and a vibrant regional acidity that extends into an extraordinarily long, earthy, and spice-tinged finish.

Food Pairing: A majestic pairing for heavy gastronomy; matches flawlessly with slow-braised beef short ribs, wild boar ragù, truffle-shaved handmade tajarin pasta, or mature, hard cheeses like Castelmagno.

90 Points - James Suckling 

So much dried-berry and chocolate fruit with hints of flowers. Full body with soft, silky tannins and a juicy finish. Lots of citrus and berry character. Drink or hold.

89 Points - Wine Enthusiast

Mature plum, vanilla, toast and toasted oak sensations lead the nose. The palate opens with juicy black cherry and plum layered with coffee, dense chocolate and bitter espresso that slightly diminish the impact of its Nebbiolo pedigree and purity. It's already accessible but should also age well.
