March 2, 2024 - Deep red colour, slightly bricky. Very pleasant perfume of rose leaves, quite light. On the palate, the wine needs quite a bit of time to open up; on day 2 it really begins to show its quality. Not what I would consider a "typical" Barolo; this is rather pinot-like, light and elegant. Good balance and length. Still seems very young; will try it again in a couple of years.

May 27, 2022 - Medium color intensity. Garnet red.
Nose of red berries, sour red cherries, raspberry, also mushroom and dried flowers.
On the palate it has smooth silky tannins, cool fruity expressions and a long aftertaste. A burgundian Barolo from the top of La Morra.
Very light and breezy Barolo made in the classic style. Drinking well now but would probably keep well for another 5 years or so.1 person found this helpful Comment -

October 16, 2021 - 2 hour decant. Medium red. Nose is floral and red fruit such as cherries. Well balanced, and drinking well now but not yet at peak. Lovely acidity and ultra fine tannins. A really great wine.

September 26, 2021 - Barolo theme: Second time trying this producer after being very impressed by its entry-level Barolo. Made in a new-school Burgundian style with lighter extraction that obtained silky rather than coarse tannins, with very pretty red fruits on the nose and the palate. Liked the floral nose of this a lot, some sweet, ripe cherries on the palate and a driven finish. Turned darker and more brooding after a few hours. Very approachable now and I prefer to drink wines made in this style in their youth for their deliciousness.

Double decant with an hour of air in the decanter, no food.
Nose: Tight nose but with aggressive swirling, it is floral nose with juicy dark red berries. Faint green streak. Faint wood spice. Faint vanilla wood.
Palate: Red strawberry, Black raspberry, faint green strawberry/herbal note. A finessed wine with medium acidity. Texturally very pleasant: clean, viscous, but not quite silky. Definitely packs a slightly sappy, dark red fruited punch on a medium bodied frame... Medium+ power on a medium frame.
Structure: Very structured. Mouth drying tannins on the swallow. Tannins are not rustic, but are very grippy and drying. There is sweet red raspberry/cherry fruit on the finish that survives the drying finish.
At dinner later this felt more closed. 92 for me.
Traditionally made and too young to drink, but approachable. A bit simple and not a 20YR wine, but I thought this was good value and a wine I definitely want to try again in 5 years. Definitely going to seek out 2016s, young vines that will have a couple more years. Similar to style of wine that I have recently enjoyed ('16 Duroche Lavaux, '16 Sottimano Pajore), not a side-by-side, but would say this is lighter/less concentrated/simpler than the those 2.2 people found this helpful Comment
