    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.

    February 23, 2018 - Drink up. This is fading fast, though given the confected flavors, I am not sure it ever had a prime time. Sad that Barolo would be turned into a caricature with no capability to mature into something complex and interesting.

    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.

    July 30, 2013 - Perfect mature Barolo in min condition. Cherry, violet, dark berries and licoriose. Soft melted integrated tannins. Great length. ???
