November 18, 2023 - Bottle seemed off as the fruit was muddled and showing some oxidation.

November 18, 2023 - Nebbiolos, white truffles, Volume VIII (Chicago, IL): Opened at 8am, double-decanted at 4pm. Not a great bottle. Just kind of dirty and muddy. Some slight soy notes as well. A shame.

November 9, 2023 - A stunning bottle, fresh and seamless. I was worried when first opened because the nose was completely muted. The wine quickly blossomed when poured, however. This was much lighter than I expected, in a very good way, floral and elegant. Notes of dried cherry, fennel, tar, rose petals and a touch of menthol. Maybe the best Nebbiolo I have had all year.

October 1, 2023 - Decanted over 2.5 hours, had only a slight bricking to its dark red color. On the nose was quite floral with a hint of tar emerging, more red fruited and a bit of earthiness. Enveloping mouthfeel, not tannic, but quite acidic. Long finish, overall was still quite primary for being just passed its drinking window. I found this very enjoyable, one of the best Barolos I've ever had.

August 27, 2023 - Popped and poured, although I have had the bottle standing up in my cellar for a few weeks. I have never been a fan of the 2000 vintage, but this is nicely balanced and expansive on the palate. More red fruited, with good acidity and focus. A little muddled on the nose, but all in a good showing.
