  93-94. Pop and pour. Leans tart red fruit: 40% red cherry / 60% sour cherry/sour strawberry, bergamot, black tea, rosewood. Medium bodied, extremely elegant. Clean, lightly polished, very fine tannins, very smooth. Slightly mouth puckering acidity and then modestly drying woodsy on the finish, suggesting (I think) more time to age this is warranted. Very drinkable but would be better with a cheese. My last note called out tannin as prominent, and here it was acidity. Tempted to slow-O the next one overnight and see what nature brings. 93-94

  Cherries, touch of mango, tea, earth. Fruit is extremely pretty on the nose but does not follow through on the palate, where it feels a little disjointed. For me, slightly behind the Tre Tine this year. Uncertain how it will, or will not, evolve from here on.

  (Blind verkostet) Helles Granatrot. Feinduftige Nase, rote Kirsche, getrocknete Kräuter, Leder, Teer. Im Gaumen zugänglich, bereits gut trinkbar, feines, eine Spur herbes Tannin, nicht überbordend in der Struktur, delikat, ausgewogen, mit guter aromatischer Länge und grosser Harmonie. Kein grosses Jahr, jedoch ein sehr guter Wein. Jetzt bis 2032 geniessen.

  Decanted a few hours prior. Very pretty midweight barolo with red cherry, florals, red rose, and svelte tannins. Pretty tannic in midpalate and finish. Did not need food. ZW93/95. At times a complete wine, at others more tannic without offsetting concentration. Defer to others on how long to age this one, but certainly has the structure to go many years longer. Great wine from the difficult 2014 vintage.
