Notes of chocolate strawberries, tart cherries and rose. Tastes high in alcohol. Tannin character is not resolved yet. I would wait another couple years before opening. For an entry level Barolo it’s overpriced.

Beautiful salinity note supported by fresh blueberries and blackberries with a hint of pepper and chocolate. Tannins are medium plus with a chalky character. Overall, I still think this wine needs another year or two to fully integrate, but it’s drinking well now if you wish to try.
