    June 24, 2023 - Med body, starting to show its age with color slightly fading towards brownish ruby esp on the rim, fruit still strong, med-high acidity, fairly alcoholic, drink now and another couple years perhaps

    January 9, 2021 - Not special Barbaresco: light body, rosés, earthy, red cherry, raspberry, spicy note, light tannins, hold for 3+ years, average finish. Too light for my liking

    December 12, 2020 - Wonderful! Still vibrant and could possibly improve for another few years, but is drinking very well right now. Only bottle I had (I have a few -15) and I definitely don’t regret opening it, even if the food was a challenge (cardamom and cumin spiced lamb with lemon hummus and tomato and chick pea salad)

    December 1, 2019 - Medium body, bright ruby color with brick rims. Impressive red fruits, flowers, tobacco and mushrooms aroma complements by cherry, wild strawberry and tar notes palate, long liquorice finish. Solid but elegant and velvety, complex and well balanced, lovely berries acidity and ripe tannins. Food friendly, best match is risotto with truffles. Serve 17º - 20º. Open at least one hour ahead. Well developed, drink now and next 6/8 years.

    November 22, 2018 - Light garnet, translucent color.
    Very impressive nose of strawberries, raspberries, roses and spices. Despite the drying tannins the wine shows some red fruited balsamic note on the finish.

    Great stuff for it's price and drinks great right now.
