  August 13, 2020 - Dusty cherries, some signs of maturity. Built in volume over an hour. Pleasant and fairly classic but not terribly complex. Slightly hot but not too bad.

  April 30, 2017 - Needed one hour + in decanter, well defined perfume on the nose, lifted midpalate and yet strong tannin structure but in a way friendly, great food friendly wine that will keep for another 5-8 y.

  November 27, 2016 - Floral and perfumed for a Barolo. Big meaty flavour, tonnes of plummy fruit. Quite high acid and only the softest of tannins. Would be perfect with game and fruit dishes.

  November 23, 2016 - Excellent intense floral and red fruits nose. On the palete dried plums, sweet spices and earthy notes. High acidity. Strongly tannic (even harsh). Long lasting. Superb quality/price ratio. For me to drink right now, but should be softer and more pleasent within next few years.
