August 3, 2018 - Perfect examples of a great aged barolo. Still plenty of acidity and fruit expressing themselves. Paired beautifully with a truffle pizza.

December 31, 2017 - Served with country prime rib of pork, brown rice, and salad.
Deep crimson, almost opaque. Decanted after flaw check - quite a bit of sediment. Touch of brick at the rim.
Nose: dark fruit - plum and prune.
Palate: dry, dark fruit, big flavor profile, moderated acid and tannin. Stood up to the prime rib (with its fat) quite well. Medium finish.
Nice wine, but won't get any better. -

November 20, 2016 - Three hour decant, this comes across in both the nose and the palate as a very average barolo, nothing stands out as very interesting. That said it is still a barolo, hence the score. Not sure if more cellar time will improve this, could be it is in a muted stage at this point.

December 26, 2015 - The 10 year bottle this Christmas. This was quite nice, and much more accessible than a few years ago. I would put it in that "good" Barolo category. Nothing reveletory here, but it isn't priced like there should be.

November 23, 2014 - décanté 3h, nécessaire. Sur Sanglier grand veneur. Couleur évoluée : tuilé, beau nez. En bouche, puissant, tanins fondus, long en bouche. Empyreumatiques, sous bois, champignon, un peu de fruits rouges. Très structuré. A très bien tenu la route sur la longueur face au gibier en sauce. TB. A boire ou peu attendre qq années.
