Dark fruit and tobacco in the nose. Medium bodied, with cedar, tobacco and chocolate notes. Some acidity remaining in the background, which helps combine with pasta and tomato based dishes. Drink now and and over the next 2 years.

Again bottle variation: after an excellent bottle this one is restrained and dominated by acidity. Earthy notes, menthol, herbal aromas, sous-bois, with only timid cask and tobacco notes, remaining way behind the last bottle. I will drink up my last three bottles in the coming months.

After an overmatured bottle earlier this year relieved that this one was in good shape and well matured. Tobacco, plum, chocolate, truffle and port aromas. Earthy, some herbal aromas and a nice sweet spice finish.

Heavy bottle variation going on here: after an overmatured bottle this one is again a pleasant, well matured, mid-range Barolo, providing much drinking pleasure now. Tobacco, plum, chocolate, truffle aromas, earthy, some herbal aromas and a nice sweet finish.

After an excellent bottle some months ago this one disappointed, with overmaturation notes and excessive acidity. Bottle variance.
