January 20, 2024 - Excellent. Wide open and generous. More red fruit and body vs cherry and tar. Beautiful wine. Served with a cheese fondue.

September 19, 2023 - I was in the mood to try something different to the usual bottles of mature Burgundy and Bordeaux I open and this felt like good value for a wine that was mature and receiving decent scores on this website. After slow oxing it for two and a half hours or so, I thoroughly enjoyed notes of umami, truffle, mushroom, cedar and red cherries all working together over a medium+ body. The tannins have softened and the wine as a whole feels rustic. Really enjoyable way to expand my wine horizons on a weeknight.

January 17, 2023 - A good Barolo that I believe still needs five years to show its best. Our pre-decanted bottle had some brightness and cherry cola to it that are turn-offs for me. I'd score even higher if that mellows with time.
