Description
The 1975 Barolo from Giacomo Damilano is a distinguished wine that reflects both the producer's dedication to traditional Barolo winemaking and the unique characteristics of the 1975 vintage. Giacomo Damilano is known for producing high-quality Barolos with a focus on the classic attributes of the region.
Given its age, the colour would have lightened considerably, showing a more translucent edge. Some sediment and cloudiness are expected, typical of older wines. The bouquet of a 1975 Barolo from Giacomo Damilano would be complex and evolved. Expect classic Barolo aromas such as dried roses, violets, and tar. Earthy and savoury notes like truffles, forest floor, and aged leather would be prominent. On the palate the tannins would have softened into a velvety texture. Despite its age, the acidity would still provide balance and structure.
Carefully decant the wine to remove sediment, but do so gently to avoid overexposure to air, as older wines can be delicate.
