April 12, 2024 - A really nice light Barolo. On the fruity side, a little bit acid. An easy going

February 10, 2024 - A pleasant, light, chianti-like Barolo. Very light colored. Not something I would age, but great with pizza.

December 8, 2023 - Palest ruby colour. Restrained on the nose, showing raspberry, tar and blood orange. Much more lively on the palate - brisk acidity, pronounced cherry and raspberry fruit, some more savour tar and peppery notes. Plenty of ripe tannins, a little grippy but overall pleasant. Lovely long finish. I find the alcohol a little hot on this one.

November 17, 2023 - That's a well balanced and refined Barolo, especially at such a young age. Tannins are there but not rough. It have a nice red purple color, a pleasant nose and a fruity taste. The wood isn't really there but it's not missing since the rest of the wine is well balanced.
