September 25, 2021 - This is still a few years from peak. Not yet there, but great potential. Do not open for now. 92 now, lots of upside

October 10, 2020 - Absolutely an extraordinary bottle! Layers of complex Nebbiolo cherrie fruit and tones of black olives, mocha and chocolate. Great balance, secondary notes of truffle and mushroom. Magnificent long finish. Right on spot now, but should last for another 10 years. 96+

June 18, 2020 - Bue dans le restaurant « Il Verso del Ghiottone » à Dogliani. Robe sombre, légère évolution, nez de sous-bois, champignons, herbe humide, complexe, légèrement fumé, encore retenu, bouche ample, mâche épaisse, alcool parfaitement fondu, très tannique, belle longueur, probablement un très beau potentiel (s’il s’ouvre, ce qui n’est pas sûr...).
