One of the best, if not the best bottle I've had. I love the vivid and pure red fruit flavors of this. I continue to wonder if there is another 06 Barolo drinking better right now.

Yet another immensely tasty bottle of this Cru. It took an hour or so to pull itself together - and would have benefitted from extended aeration. But once it found its legs, there was no looking back. It's been 10 months since my last taste and while the fruit remains as pure and delicious, now there is more depth and stuffing. I will enjoy tracking this wine's progress.

Hmmm, either this bottle was a bit demure or it simply paled compared to a fab ‘97 Brunello Riserva from Tornesi. Still very good with the usual bright, ripe red fruit, but this one didn’t hit as many high notes as previous bottles.

A real beauty that while still youthful is drinking beautifully. On a night with 9 excellent Barolo, this really stood out. Sweet and rich with good balancing acidity. Tutto bene!

If there is a 2006 Barolo drinking better, I welcome the introduction.
