Slaz Does not like this wine: 87 points
March 16, 2023 - Not my first bottle over the last 5 years and it is still mediocre at best, even after two hours of decanting. The only positive thing about it is that it is not ripe, but also no complexity and very little to get excited about. Sad.

July 11, 2021 - Rose on the nose. Tart cherries on the tongue. Darkish red with some brick on rim. Basic Barolo but good qpr and no complaints except missing clay, leather and earth.

August 24, 2019 - Ripe cherry fruit, relatively candied (for Nebbiolo). At the same time there is an green stemy flavor and some unpleasant tannins. Disappointing.
