This is still a little cool from the cellar, and judging from my previous notes, that is probably a good thing, as the wine comes across as balanced with decent acidity.

Better on the nose than the palate, but overall not bad. Ripe cherry on the nose, bordering on overripe, but not quite getting there. A hint of Balsamico as well.
Fairly straightforward on the palate, but overall a likable wine.

Starts off tannic with nice fruit and acid - a nice balanced wine. After 2 hours it improves: gets bigger, fuller, with more fruit. No trace of oak. Definitely enjoy now if you want, but it will last longer and maybe even improve, with time in the cellar. Very nice wine, especially for $28.

Solid barolo that is drinking well with a good amount of air. Lots of black cherry fruit, tar, and long finish. However, my experience with this producer is that the wines don't age well. But, this is really good now.

Translucent ruby in the glass; menthol & red fruits on a primary nose.
Correct, but other than that, nothing to remark on. Without looking at my notes, I'm going to guess I liked earlier bottles better.
