  Some menthol on the nose. Not much fruit. Smooth with oak and vanilla and smooth tannins. I'm not picking up much fruit or floral elements.

  Flight 2 with Burlotto Monvigliero. dense, voluminous, creamy oak, in the vein of modern style actually. Ripe cherries, glossy fruits, strawberries and a cooling minty influence to the palate. In the mouth it is more restraint than in the nose, it has elegance and some of that dried fruits character. Oak though was touch distracting.

  Continues to be fantastic. This light weighted, yet high toned fruit with plenty of structure is my favorite style of Barolo. Cherry, strawberry, menthol, herbs.

  Burgundy vs Barolo: Guessed as 2013 Barolo. Some spice and high-toned red fruit notes. Firm backbone and tannins. With air, it put on a lovely elegance. My favourite of the flight.

  Aromas of eucalyptus, rosemary, dried pine needles and mulberries. Medium-bodied and only moderately tannic, this is certainly ready to drink. This is just fine, nothing special. I sense that like so many wines from this property, it's about to head south, so drink up! 91
