  A really nice light Barolo. On the fruity side, a little bit acid. An easy going

  A pleasant, light, chianti-like Barolo. Very light colored. Not something I would age, but great with pizza.

  Palest ruby colour. Restrained on the nose, showing raspberry, tar and blood orange. Much more lively on the palate - brisk acidity, pronounced cherry and raspberry fruit, some more savour tar and peppery notes. Plenty of ripe tannins, a little grippy but overall pleasant. Lovely long finish. I find the alcohol a little hot on this one.

  That's a well balanced and refined Barolo, especially at such a young age. Tannins are there but not rough. It have a nice red purple color, a pleasant nose and a fruity taste. The wood isn't really there but it's not missing since the rest of the wine is well balanced.

  Langhe Nebbiolo and Barolo: Red berries with emphasis on cherry and herbs. Very clean. Nice concentration and quite silky with some tannic bite in the aftertaste. Ready to drink but needs more time if you want tertiary aromas.
