August 28, 2019 - The deep dark red color of a new Barolo is the good news. The lack of any significant bouquet or fruit is the bad news. Bought new and aged properly but these things happen with wine even a Barolo.

March 3, 2019 - Definitely past its prime, but still drinking well for 20 years old. An elegant combination of rose and tar flavors. Light bodied. Low acidity. nice finish.

August 19, 2017 - This wine is holding up well despite it's age. Med body, tannins are settled, good fruit but this wine is slightly past prime. If you have this, needless to say, drink now.
