March 17, 2024 - Elegant, quite light, red fruits with some tar. Easy drinking as the structure is not massive. Burgundyesque. Good length, some complexity. Drinking beautifully now.

December 17, 2023 - no notes and not totally focused on this, but was good to very good, nice balance of body and some hints of secondary flavors... my strong instinct (no surprise with Barolo) is to give this 5 to 7 (or ever 10-12) years of more age if you can resist temptation... for not felt like 92'ish, but with upside

December 2, 2023 - Brought by MK. Lovely aromas of dark cherries, plums, roses, a bit of tar and flowers. Rich ripe cherries on the palate, flowers, roses, a bit of tar and mild-med tannins. Elegant mouthfeel. This wine was still young and not showing all it has. Certainly will improve with more age and may need another 10 years to reach peak(?). But it's really enjoyable now. 93+
