  Easily could have mistaken it for a Barolo in a blind tasting. Still a bit on the tannic / austere side. Whether that will change in the upcoming years I cannot predict, given the lack of experience with these wines.

  It has the profile of a Barolo but with a more pronounced mineral character and sweet herbs. The sweet part, which is also marked by sweet cherry, is a bit too dominant, preventing a perfect balance but it remains an interesting wine.

  Really interesting complex wine. Needed a good airing. Lovely perfumed nose. Then bitter streak, like in Campari. Bitter cherries, cranberries, redcurrants. Tannins very forward and indeed a bit furry. Plenty acidity. Fine not voluptuous or rich. Good length. Needs food too. More than enough alcohol but not hot. But quite fascinating, explore further!

  Love it, perfect with homemade pizza done on the BBQ. Wonderful, red fruit with strong tannic backbone, lots of complexity and minerality popping through.

  Très drôle quand j'ai vu qu'Alex T avait amené le même vin mais en blanc !
  Un vin sur le fruit,plus acide,fraise macéré.Floral en retro.
  Léger poivre noir.Aurait pû passer pour un Pinot Noir.
  Tire à 14.5% .
  Vraiment superbe maintenant.
