  14.5% alcohol. 24 months in used barriques and 15hl barrels. 8 months in steel, 8 months in bottle.
  Clear red core, light orange border.
  
  Tight with concentrated deep red core, yet so crazy delicate aromas. This is Julia Robert's charming smile throughout. Tight red fruit, dark powerful rose meadow, crushed pebbles, white pepper, salt, concentrated rose hip tea, leather and hints of exotic spice.
  
  Pretty full-bodied and extremely fantastic Barolo. Electrical. Time stands still. tears in the eyes. This is Nebbiolo's answer to iron fist in a velvet glove. Tightly concentrated mouthfeel that calls out words such as masculine, tough, elegance and silk at the same time. Fabulous fruit that hits like a fist with fresh red berries, red fruit peel, light tar and a nice dried fruit edge on a long and fabulous finish with firm, yet so correct tannins.
  
  Superb Barolo that few, if any, can make. Not a trace of excess sweetness or alcohol in the wine. Impressive. 98 points
