12/23/2022 - MAXIMUM SATISFACTION wrote: 93 pointsDecanted for a few hours and this still needs time. The regular bottle comes out juicer/riper and over better. Muted/astringent with high acid. Some cherry, vanilla and tobacco are there but buried by structure. Hold for at least five years.

3/11/2022 - Es7e2003 Likes this wine: 91 pointsLemon, honey and flint. Much rounder, fuller than the 2016, with more discernible heat and very little hint of sea salt. Better on day two.

2016 Poderi Aldo Conterno Barolo BussiaNebbiolo more |
10/16/2021 - roljui Likes this wine: 92 pointsWas dubious about drinking this so young but it was so fresh and delightful - after a 1.5hr decant it was drinking really nicely. Very fruit-forward, borderline jammy for a Barolo. Would drink again - I'm sure it will improve with time but I'd happily drink another literally right now.

10/5/2021 - Mr T wrote: NRday 1 oxidized color and taste to some extent. Decent acid so balance sweetness. Corked and pumped and back in fridge for a few days while out of town. Opened last night with Thai food and very disappointing with no acid/contrast or tasty fruit and just kind of flabby. Would it have been better 2-3 days earlier? I'm sure, but still not convinced would have really enjoyed this bottle or possibly this wine. 2 bottles left. Also don't think is a long-lived vintage given ripeness

2016 Clos I Terrasses Priorat LaurelGrenache Blend, Grenache more |
3/18/2021 - Es7e2003 Likes this wine: 92 pointsBright ruby, beautiful and youthful in the glass. Fresh aromas of red fruit, raspberry, strawberry, crushed dried flowers and sweet spice. Even at this young stage the oak seems to be integrated. Acid, tannins and the alcohol seem to be all in balance. Medium + finish. Excellent qpr for priorat at $37.
