Don’t really buy these anymore as I drifted away from my perceived modernness of the producer. With that said, while maybe a bit polished, this wa suite delicious. Light bodied, Elegant and moderately complex, with no signs of over ripeness, extraction, or oak. I wish I had more left than I do.

Waft of initial rose then classic tar. Slightly lively palate, over the top of mushrooms and maybe cherries? Finish is a little acidic. Maybe not the most table bottle?

One of the stronger wines I have had from 2000. Fruit seems to be losing it’s luster but there is life in there. Definitely hitting the end of the road and taking on more vegetal and earthy aromas and flavors now.

Decanted first about an hour and perfectly open. Fairly soft with a distinct rose nose. Drinking lovely

One of the very best aged Barolos in years. Fruit + finesse, long after taste and all of that with power. Great stuff.
