Exquisite! Poetry in the glass. Opened about 8 hours before and then decanted for an hour. One bottle left. Wish I had many more. In a perfect spot now, but no need to rush.

Drinking really well, although perhaps just starting to decline from its peak drinking plateau. Opened about 8 hours before drinking and then decanted about an hour before. A very pretty Barbaresco. Served on Christmas Eve with osso bucco, which was pretty much as good as it gets.

Piemonte: Back to the truffling!; 11/24/2022-12/3/2022 (Wineries and various restaurants): Opened and decanted for sediment and then rebottled. Such an interesting wine. The more time it was exposed to air the more that the fruit came out and honestly the more it tasted a bit like the Serafina Rivella which we were drinking alongside. This was light and bright but not quite as light as sometimes he manages with the wine. My guess is the regular white label barbaresco from that year even though there was a tine note about the Rabaja. Still a good wine and enjoyable.
