  April 26, 2024 - Bright cherry, lemon pound cake, and sage. Very smooth, dry palate, with long lingering acidity. Full, lower intensity tannins on the longish finish.
  
  We all thought this was a Barbaresco at first. I’m not a big fan of Barolo, but this is interesting.

  April 26, 2024 - WS Grand Tour (Walkaround Tasting) (New Orleans): Very light berry, elegant and drinkable.
  Very light body.
  Maybe this will put on weight with time.
  This did not help my case to disabuse AGELVIS of the idea that Nebbiolo is anything like Pinot. Normally the color is deceiving but in this case the pale color was exactly what you would expect. Also not may of the classic Barolo signatures (roses and tar) yet.

  May 15, 2023 - Gambero Rosso Tasting (Doltone House, Sydney): Clean, polished, slightly meaty notes, sweet spice, muted plummy fruit. Medium plus intensity acidity and tannins; the latter drying grippy rasp persists long, again a slightly sour underpin to the muted fruit. Hmm.
