    January 13, 2011 - Popped & put through the Vinturi. Dark maroon hue. Not an overly expressive nose. Black fruit on the palate, finished a bit tart.

    March 22, 2010 - Purple;
    Dolcetto loves fat...this is a bunch of blueberries...Nose notes—violets, stewed plums, figs,...Mouth: blackberries marionberries ...But it’s the texture of this wine I really dig...tannins all over the place, but the fruit keeps it from coming off astringently...

    January 15, 2010 - Frangrant prunes and pepper. Full palate of licorice and plums. Lingering, pleasant licorice finish. Balanced and delicious, good food wine. A no brainer purchase in the mid teens.

    March 9, 2009 - Empson Brunello/Barolo tasting (University Club, Milwaukee): nice cherry fruit on the nose. structure to see this young wine through, this phase of it's life (young and tannic) out of the academic and into the ephemeral. revisit me in a couple years.
