    May 21, 2023 - Excellent aged nebbiolo. Great balance. Tanins had faded, medium bodied, roses, notes of eukalyptus

    March 14, 2022 - Some rose and spice on the nose and nice texture, but fruit was flat and stewed... heat damage?

    Feels bad as this was a very thoughtful gift from one of my best friends.

    September 3, 2021 - Dinner at Alex's (Alex and Fiona's in AMK): This was really quite nice. Still rather modern, but perhaps just a little lighter, tighter and less forward than the 2004 Fontanafredda la Villa that we had alongside, but I think this actually benefitted from that. The nose showed deep dark notes of blackberries and plums, alongside a really nice dose of spice and dried brush herb and rocky mineral. Nice. The palate was on the more modern side, but still had a good bit of control on it, with fine but firm Nebbiolo tannins and a nice bit of juicy, chewy acidity framing full flavours of blackberries and dark cherries, maybe a touch of dried raisins and plums, these flecked with warm shades of spice and herb, and nice flush of rose petals at the finish. I liked this - a nicely complex wine, drinking decnth at this stage, but with its peak easily a decade or more ahead of it yet.

    May 16, 2020 - A lovely elegant even burgundy style barolo. Lots of lifted roses and red berries - no tar or austerity. Soft mid weight fruit based barolo with lovely length not powerful but so feminine. Much better than previous 2 bottles. Ready to drink and enjoy
