  10/3/2023 - ricard Likes this wine: 96 Points

  A sweetness that is truly mesmerising. And a spiciness. Much more power and tannin than the Monvigliero or the Castelletto. Denser, richer and thicker. An excellent example of the idiosyncrasies of an individual vineyard - same grape, same winemaker, same vintage, profoundly different wine. Long and persistent. Absurdly concentrated and intense.
  
  Fabio Alessandria, the winemaker, says the 2020s aren't for the really long haul as much as the 2019s. He thinks they are more aromatic and fresher and would drink them at 5-10 years. He sees "wild strawberries" in them.
