  August 3, 2023 - Back in NL drinks (Utrecht): [Restaurant purchase] Pop-up win bar Utregs Wijnhuis at Koenraad. Medium intensity with licorice, dough, cherry, laurel, strawberry. Medium+ acidity, high tannins, medium finish. Last bottle of the evening, so notes probably don’t do the bottle justice

  January 8, 2023 - Strawberry and camphor on the nose. On the palate, light cherry, strawberry, and notes of rose petal and clove on the medium finish, with moderate to strong tannins and well-balanced acidity. This was a good value at a little over $50.

  October 1, 2022 - Surely one of the three or four best sites in Barbaresco. Decanted an hour. Appropriately pale red hue - paling further to a watery rim. Expressive nose of finely poised small red fruits. The vintage expresses itself in the redness of the fruit. Pronounced red fruits on the palate also - cherry, perhaps even some strawberry - framed by savory notes of licorice and camphor. A very pleasant restraint / delicacy. Nothing too assertive or insistent or extracted. Balanced. Really quite fine grained silky tannins, with just a little grip at the end and the barest hint of dryness. Certainly nothing to suggest it is not fully ripe. A wine that perhaps speaks a little more softly than in more heralded vintages - and that lack of power may make it seem less persistent also - yet it displays all the inner beauty you could hope for. This is very elegant for Roncaglie - pretty even, which is not what comes to mind with nebbiolo. Showing some early complexity already. Authentic Barbaresco. I found myself continually reaching for the glass. Will surely go a while yet but can be - and perhaps on this showing should be - approached within a few years. Very happy.
