    October 16, 2022 - Some prunes / raisins on the nose … considerable sentiment at the bottom of bottle. Not bad but won’t be sitting on my last bottle .

    October 7, 2017 - Lovely, classic barolo, now entering a prime drinking window. Still needs air, but showing classic profile of tar and roses, with dark berry fruit, alluring nose, and good structure.

    January 18, 2014 - Wasserrand mit Ziegelrot. Recht weit oxidiert, Tertiäraromen. Am zweiten Tag besser trinkbar, da auf einmal doch noch etwas Frucht durchkam :) ansonsten eher für traditionell ausgerichtete Barolofans geeignet, zumindest diese Flasche

    November 2, 2013 - Deep colour. Anise, tar, truffles and dark cherries. Quite austere, but seems to have some potential left. Not terribly complex, though.
