October 13, 2023 - I have always enjoyed this wine, and it is still drinking well at 19 years old. Make sure it is not too warm as there is a precision to the fruit that you would miss. Having said that, it has never “moved” me or showed its soul to me. So I would not rush to buy again…..

April 12, 2023 - 1/1, vg cork, decanted then served at c14C.
Medium garnet core, very pale garnet rim. Shows spicy red fruit - red cherry - some smoke and ash, a little ponderous and oaky at first but becoming more aromatic as it warms slightly. Touch of brown sugar. Medium bodied on the palate, red cherry fruit, some nice purity coming through, liquorice, spice, touch of furniture polish, soft tannins, fresh/vibrant acids, good length harmonious finish, with a hint og fig at the tail end. A bit gauche at first this ended up being an enjopyable, mature Barolo. Drinking now but no obvious need to hurry. -

July 14, 2018 - 18c; no decant, first taste after cork was pulled; clean, coppered-red; expressive nose of mint, pinks, cherry tobacco, sage; brilliant attack, angular structure, vigorous tannins and solid fruit offering a lingering, minute-long finish; prominent metals, bright red fruit (raspberries, dried cherries), mint, tobacco, herbs (sage, capers); lovely; expanded voluptuously over a couple of hours; (the next day, the 1/3rd of bottle remaining was still fully alive with even more complexity); 18.5
