September 28, 2019 - Decanted for an hour. Very nice, with good aromas of violets, lilacs, and some pretty heavy fruit. the palate followed with excellent dark fruit, good tannins, very tasty. I don't have much experience with Barolos, but I'd say this is in a more modern style. Very good in any case!

April 2, 2018 - Yet another one of these that was partially corked. So disappointing. Totally undrinkable on Day 1, but slightly better and actually tolerable on Day 2. I am through with Corino, Clerico, Seghesio, Ratti and other producers of "modern" style Barolo. Ora basta!

March 14, 2018 - 2005 GIOVANNI CORINO BAROLO- BLIND: at first, I got a veggie component in the nose, but fortunately it dissipated and gave way to decent fig, date and plum notes; as with the nose, the taste improved with time and I found some blueberry and blackberry as well; it was light to medium in body and expression.

September 22, 2017 - Another spectacular showing of this wine. Deep, majestic, a velvet red. Bursting of sweet cherries in the nose. Luscious and thick... rolling in the mouth. A long, broad finish. Impossible to put down once the glass is in hand.
