cigar box and bright red fruits with a blast of cassis in the finish

This is Lot L033331E100008

warm and long finish that has a slightly bitter chocolate character to it

but the purity of the fruit is impossible to miss even at this early stage

Domenico Clerico, Barolo Pajana Vintage:2007 cigar box and bright redThe 2001 Barolo Pajana offers up freshly cut flowers, espresso, mint, leather, exotic spices and plums. The fruit still shows plenty of intensity and the tannins have softened, yet the Pajana remains a bit of a brute. There is enough fruit for the 2001 to drink well for another decade or so, but I don't see this ever being a truly elegant Barolo.
