Still fairly tannic, some fruit but nothing to rave about. Was hoping for more out of this one but fell short. Not terrible by any means but just wasn’t that interesting either. Our advice: Drink up with some people who wouldn’t otherwise know a good wine, gift it to someone you’re not that invested in or enjoy it as a 3rd bottle one night.

Tasted double blind at The Refectory in CBus. Unmistakable Barolo flavors made this a dead giveaway, but the tannins made me think this was younger than 22 years even though the color is bricking. This has at least a decade left.

Everyone agrees--pretty thin, muddied fruit, high acidity, not much else going on. Pass.

I thought this was fine but there are better examples in the range. Mushroom, leather, recessed fruit. But a bit dusty and not particularly long.
