March 28, 2024 - Ikke dekantert. Syren har tatt et alt for langt forsprang. Nesen er stadig bra, men munnen har det ikke gøy. Skuffende.

It doesn't have the power of the average barolo, which may disappoint some. I personally appreciated the relatively light weight delivery in a barolo heavy lineup.2 people found this helpful Comment -

July 31, 2023 - Really lovely juice. Very vibrant and vigorous. Castiglione notes of spearmint and sage along with classic Nebbiolo notes. High-toned and red fruited with crisp tannins and a long savory finish. No tertiary notes that I noticed over the four hours that we consumed the bottle. This has a long life ahead of it, and I can’t wait to revisit this. No rush here, but no problem cracking a bottle now if you have at least a few hours of time to let it breath.

May 31, 2023 - Very elegant and poised expression of classic Barolo character with crushed roses, citrus peel, asphalt, deep earth and mineral notes. Tannins are present but stay in line. Mild acidity. From here on will develop more secondary and tertiary character but a joy to drink now as well.

January 28, 2023 - Dekantert. Nydelig, mot en stor burgund, fra første glass. Bedre og bedre. Et hakk opp dag 3.
