    December 25, 2022 - Intenso e di buona complessità: naso speziato e tostato terziario ma non solo. Tabacco cacao, caffè e cuoio ma anche denso di frutti scuri maturi. Al palato tannini perfettamente integrati e bell'equilibrio. Finale di ottima lunghezza

    May 28, 2022 - Classic Barolo profile with dark red fruit, tar, leather, and still quite a bit of tannins.

    May 6, 2022 - Pure pleasure in a bottle. This is so good it should really be illegal to drink. Still has strong tannic structure to last a few more years. Bravo!

    May 1, 2022 - Dark, deep black red.
    Lovely fragrance , black fruits, tar spice, roses.
    Cassis , lovely fruit, hint of coffee, earth, tar spice , licorice. Powerful drying tannins , excessive really , even though the fruit is still quite strong .
