Well, bugger me! I have finally had a wine from this label that doesn't suck. Badly.
Seriously, I was beginning to think that this label was being made by Burgundian producers, who were cunningly trying to white ant their major competition.
Is this one so good I would change my "Do not buy this label under any circumstances" position? No. No way. The next 50 bottles from them (if I ever open so many) will need to be this good to change that position. One good bottle out of the recent 15 is not enough.

Double decanted 4 hours in advance. Poured back into the clean bottle and re-corked until the cheese course. Lovely medium transparent ruby. Very aromatic with a cherry sappiness. Tasted like it smelled. No rush on this wine. Delicious!

Meh. The most consistently underperforming label in Barolo. There are too many better producers to make this worthwhile.
