  Post Barber Adagio festivities (Trelissick Crescent, Ngaio, Wellington, New Zealand): Drunk next to an outstanding premiere cru Volnay, never have the similarities between Barolo and Burgundy been quite as clear to me. A very forward example for Cannubi, with ripe cherry fruit, a touch of tar, and plenty of minerality. The palate is soft (although the tannins are certainly lurking!), open, but also focused. A very classy drop, that shows beautiful refinement in an easy drinking (by Barolo standards), and forward manner. Open for business.

  Bottom of cork pristine. Top of cork mold. Wine oxidized or something else.

  Beautiful, very elegant, gently extracted Barolo. Sweet cherries, redcurrants, strawberries, roses and some leather. Silky and long; tannins coming through on the finish. Almost Burgundian, but puts on some weight with air.

  Barolo Cannubi with James Suckling (Domani, Hong Kong): Bright red. Lots of cherry and sweet oak on nose. Decent acidity and attack. Unresolved tannins as expected. Drops off sharp.
