July 27, 2019 - MG - Mature and balanced Barolo. Perfect for drinking now. At is peak, but no significant signs of tiredness. Drink for another 3-5 years.

November 4, 2011 - Beautiful, mature and complex bouquet. Spiciness and a touch of menthol. Completely dissolved tannin. A beautiful an elegant Barolo. Completely ready now.
