    April 14, 2022 - Consistent with other comments, this wine is fantastic. It instantly hits with complex aromas of dark fruits and rich soil. Totally harmonious, with tons of flavors and lift, making it so satisfying to drink. This would pair with many foods, but my ideal for the deep and somewhat meaty fruit would be a hearty stew, coq au vin, etc.

    December 10, 2021 - Last bottle was 3 years ago. What a difference time makes! In a very nice place now: pure, balanced red joy. Fine tannins, a bit of of grip, red berry aromatics. A touch of licorice. Paired with pizza, lovely.

    March 15, 2020 - Purple core. Cassis and blackberry fruit, menthol. Layered, medium weight-pretty extraordinary concentration for Dolcetto. Not quite as exuberant as previously, but still stuffed with fruit and tannin, and a nice herbal twist for complexity. Pleasantly bitter finish. Well above class and expectations, and should you have any left, it promises to be outstanding for another few years.

    July 1, 2019 - Wow, this bottle is in the zone. Dark fruits, black pepper, and strong acidity all presented in style so elegant that you have to remind yourself this is "just" a Dolcetto.

    April 19, 2019 - Another good showing, the primary fruit has calmed down a little. Very good, balanced Dolcetto to drink over the next 2 years or so.
