April 6, 2024 - Red fruit, blood orange, hard candy, new oak. Tannic, some sweetness from the oak. Good, if you don’t mind the modern style. Recommend giving it a couple of hours of air. Now and for many years ahead.

June 22, 2022 - Rich and ripe, a modern Nebbiolo with lots of dark cherry, tobacco and oak. Some pruny notes. Tannins well managed, much better than most Barolo. Great showing. I think this is one of Elio’s top wines.

May 6, 2022 - Dark color, mint on the nose. Red berries on the palate. A nice wine but I would suggest you Wait 2-3 years.

January 15, 2022 - This is the first experience with this wine. It is open from the beginning. Pure joy! In the nose we find dark fruits, tar and some mint. The wine bursts with sweet cherrie fruit and has nice tannins and acidity to balance the wine. Long persistent aftertaste. This wine is ready to go and has many years ahead.
