    August 6, 2018 - Good, balanced concentration, deep rose pedals, tar, dried
    Herbs, cola, there is some concentrated red fruits, but it takes a back seat. Broad, coating tannin, Very present, but not overtly aggressive.

    2/1/19, 5:41 PM - The drink dates for this wine are set to 2015-2019, which seems very short for a Barolo. Based on your recent tasting what would you set as a drink window?

    2/5/19, 12:12 AM - I think it will last a bit longer. I have my window set at 2016-2023. Generally, I think Virna's wines drink best in the 8-12 year window, but 2006 Barolo's are built for greater longevity, thus the 10-17 yr window.
