deep and dense; perfectly ripe; acidity stands up to the big fruit; sweet oak, christmas spice and earth; would have guessed a bit of young petit syrah was added to the glass; i have a mixed past with barolo, but every so often, one surprises and amazes me.

Powerful. Tannins are not tough. Would wait a couple of years before drinking again

Orange bricked rim, cherry, cinnamon, fig, and a little bit of vanilla on the nose. Great flavor profile that matches the nose, medium+ acidity, tannins have mostly integrated at this point, medium+ finish. Enjoyed with ribeyes.

Nice elegant and layered Barolo that certainly needs more bottle time. Was willing to open one up and give it a go with a couple more in the cellar. Will wait a few years at least for the next one. Lots of potential to "age up" into mid 90s. Structured, floral, red fruits and leather - tannin still very high and dominant. Can be drunk now with a full decant and a couple hours.

The wine was decanted off a moderate amount of sediment, and aired for two hours before tasting.

Eye: Medium ruby center to a light ruby rim. The wine is beginning to show bricking/browning.

Nose: Bright red fruit. Cool mint. Acetone. Sarsaparilla. Super herbal.

Palate: Acidic like fresh pineapple juice. It sucks all the moisture from my mouth. Red fruit. Touch of earthiness. Still herbal.

Finish: Moderate length. Lingering tartness and red fruitiness. More mint.

Overall: This wine is like a delicious punch in the face.

Popped and poured, gave small aeration with seive. Fine sediment. Orange hue. Mature Barolo once again in a prime spot. Tannins not too big but present. Lots of soft cherries with good secondaries, beautiful nose, and in a great place tonight. Went well with homemade roasted veggie pasta sauce. Need to buy more of these aged Barillas to restock my celler. Still rocking on night two with it only being recorked.

Mature now ? I think it is a Barolo to drink now and the next 2 years. Easy Living Wine…

Rasberry, earth on the nose. Tannic at the beginning with peppery finish. Plain nose and taste after 30 mins. Recommend to enjoy the bottle within 30 mins. There is also iron on the nose.

Gorgeous - I just had a bottle of this about two months ago, and this is really in the zone right now. Red fruit and tar on the nose, candied red fruit on the palate with decent acidity and good persistence. Fully mature at this point, but not showing any signs of decline either, so I’d say this was drink or hold.

Let me start by stating that I love older wine. This one is on the younger side for wines I like.

Fabulous 12 year old Barolo wine. Aroma's of aged cherry and wood barrel. In mouth it is creamy textured and absolutely perfect right now. Nothing of significant depth here but a very enjoyable drinkable wine right now.

Excellent, full flavored example of Barbera. Red fruit that isn't sweet but has meaty undertones yet matches up favorably with food as well as it stands on its own.

Opened by Mark. Brick red color. Lightly sedimented. Not decanted but opened an hour before drinking. A dry Barolo with tart red fruit, cactus and and an earthy finish. Moderate tannins. Really nice and more forward than the 2001 Barolo Vecchia Vigne that we drank alongside this. 92 points.

My 2nd of 3 bottles and this one was even better than the first bottle. Opened an hour before drinking. Light to moderate sediment. Purple color with a little bricking. Sweet red fruit on the nose. Integrated tannins that swirl on the palate and hold everything together. Smooth texture with meaty notes and a portlike richness to the black and red fruit. We drank this alongside the 2007 Corino Barolo which was also very nice. 96 points.

Rich aromas of cherry cordial and fig paste. Full bodied and organized, but the fruit is a little bit overcooked. Lingering finish of figs and spice. Drink up.

Similar to, and just as good as the 07 Vigna Giachini we had two months ago. Dark, tarry and delicious. Should drink on this plateau for quite a while.

Decanted for 7 hours, corked it and refrigerated it overnight, then let it breathe for 7 hours the following day. Still a bit tannic, but the tannins were soft and rather pebbly. This is a very good wine, and showed alot of rose petal, cigar leaf, cherry jam, was quite floral with a generous and expansive nose, and had some funk, truffles, dark fruit, and other earthy elements.

I like this wine alot. Will come back to it in a few more years.

Decanted for 7 hours, corked it and refrigerated it overnight, then let it breathe for 7 hours the following day. Still massively tannic. This is a very good wine, and showed alot of rose petal, some tobacco leaf, and some earthy elements. I just think it needs 5 more years.

I just had a glass of the ‘98 Roagna Paje and right now this wine comes across as younger and more lively on the palate. To be fair, 2001 is a more classic vintage than 1998, so we may just have better fruit in this wine. The wines are similar on the nose, but the cherry fruit on the palate is brighter here and the wine shows more acidity. That said, this is clearly a mature wine as well, so if you have it, consider pulling a cork in the near term.
