  Starting the red wines off with a bang. The first vintage and one of my favorites of the tasting. It’s very light and elegant and refined in style. At first perhaps a touch closed but it continued to open with time and had that nice gentleness (aka refinement) that I really like. Bit of floral, some rose hips. Luca’s first vintage and a very good start.

  We had the 2013 Paje vintage at a tasting couple months ago and it was so much red fruits and so Burgundian style. Unfortunately this 2001 Crichet bottle seemed totally closed, maybe the Crichet magnum bottle just needs more years to open up. The 2001 Crichet was only bottled in August 2010.

  From a magnum. Unfortunately, the wine was completely muted on both the nose and palate. The palate was also lean and astringent. It either needs a lot more time or its off tonight.

  I would never call it Barbaresco if it was served blind. Soo Burgundian, lots of red food, silky tannins and fresh acidity very pungent. Simply gorgeous. At the very same time, it still possesses the Barbaresco flavours by showing that fresh white flowers on the nose, scent of truffle and crush stones, Round and velvet on the palate.

  Closed down quickly. The potential is obvious. I would wait 5-7 years, maybe more.
