2009 Cordero di Montezemolo Barolo Monfalletto

Good medium red. Redcurrant, marzipan and sexy sweet spices on the nose and palate; much showier today than the 2010 version. Rich, pliant and sweet, combining a fine-grained texture and noteworthy inner-mouth lift. Broad, ripely tannic and easy to understand.
92 points. Stephen Tanzer, Vinous.
