February 9, 2024 - Harmonious nose with earthy notes, black fruits, faded rose and spices.
On the palate, the freshness of the wine is striking. The juice is lively with a frank attack, the juice is loose, unfolding aromas of black fruits and undergrowth. Beautiful balance with a lively acidity which stretches a dense wine. Second half of the palate on rose and sweet spices. Beautiful spicy finish with a delicate and appreciable length on faded rose.
Very beautiful Barolo, far from being in decline. -

February 10, 2023 - Gorgeous tonight - and unfortunately my last bottle. Roses and tar on the nose, lively acidity and red fruit on the palate. Hard to imagine this would get any better at this point, but it doesn’t feel tired at all, so who knows how long it might last.

November 19, 2020 - 1990 Barolo dinner (Lafiandra, Singapore): Delicious stuff. Third time round with this bottle - this was a nice showing. It had a classic Barolo nose, with notes of black cherries and dark berries soaked with bits of smoky tar and spice, earth and meat, and just a little curl of rose petals at the side. The palate was in lovely form, with a remnant of firm tannins and still bright acidity framing a lovely, clear, strong mouthful of dark red cherries and berries laced with nice wafts of spice and a hint of rose petals lingering into the finish. Drinking very nicely tonight.
