Very much like its sibling the Parafada, but it seems the volume here is turned up a notch.
Less elegant but of the same quality.
Preferred the Parafada because of the elegance.
Entering its drinking window.
Excellent - Outstanding. (94-95)

Light on its feet, pretty and elegant, slight reduction.
Not terribly early to drink this.
One of my favorites, if not the favorite in a great line-up!
Excellent - Outstanding! (94-95)

I believe this wine was aged in Barriques which gives it a rounder and more voluptuous mouthfeel. Mouthfeel is great and more accessible than some other young Nebbiolo.
This wine also has darker notes of chocolate/coffee and oak which more traditional Barolos don't have.
I liked it and I think it is a very good wine that is already accessible.
Not sure if I would buy tons of it, but I'd like to have another bottle to reassess.
Very good - Excellent.
