This was a fascinating old wine still holding its own. It came from an old cellar and was drunk with company in Hong Kong. It showed dried tobacco and cedar along with dried fruits. On the palate, it was full-bodied and velvety. A great offering for such an old Barolo.

The 1967 Borgogno possesses a captivating and enthralling nose of roses, licorice and menthol you could get lost in. Sadly, this wine is less interesting on the palate, and lacks continuity, definition and fruit to balance the aromatics. Nevertheless, this is an interesting bottle that showcases the Borgogno style in its classic, austere character. The tannins are quite soft, and this is a pretty wine for current consumption. It shows no signs of being tired, and the way Borgognos age, this bottling can easily last another ten or more years. Like all of this house’s library releases, this wine is incredibly fresh and intact considering its 38 years. (AG)
