October 2, 2022 - It is a very fruity wine. Dense berries, mostly dark. The tea-like tannins provide some welcome structure.

September 13, 2022 - Love this bottle.
Needs at least 2 hours of decant off sediment.
It's a must to let this rest after transport as there is much fine smoke to settle out.
This might be my favorite Dolcetto after Mascarello and Giacosa. It's truly excellent.
Liquid flowers, meats, in balance with levity and density.
There's cherry sweetarts and a delish smoky/herb length to the finish.
If you don't let it settle til totally clear, you'll get mucho bitter of the tannins in sediment. So make sure to use a powerful LED to shine through. If it's the least bit cloudy, leave it alone until clear.
Excellent bottle. -

July 6, 2022 - Deep purple fruit with black smokey core, dark toasted oak, leather. Earthy with some flower petals. Tight finish. Despite the dark profile, it's quite light on its feet. Good.
